Just to clarify, for the sake of the list, I did not mean code contributions :) Part of the idea behind rayServers is to support open source projects that contribute directly to our success and enhance the value of open source. > However, long time ago I repeatedly tried to submit bug fixes to mainline, > most of which were dropped.

I hope that mainline folks who might read this take it to heart that, in the opinion of this user, after a lot of practical testing, loop-aes provides a better and more stable crypto interface that that available in cryptoapi, and that I hope to see it merged into the mainline 2.6 kernels. At rayServers we certainly will only use loop-aes, given the resistance to the watermark attack, the simplicity of encrypted swap, and a stable losetup across a range of kernels.
