Mario,
yes sorry for the delay on getting these up, it will be a few more days yet but
we will have AppArmor 2.5 kernel patches convering 2.6.31 - 2.6.35 (and maybe
2.6.30).  I have now plans to go further back as creds becomes an issue.

The upstreaming patchset will also be made available against a couple kernel
releases as well as the compatibility patches that distros will have to carry,
if they want backwards compatability.
