---- What is TOMOYO? ---
-
-TOMOYO is a name-based MAC extension (LSM module) for the Linux kernel.
-
-LiveCD-based tutorials are available at
-http://tomoyo.sourceforge.jp/1.7/1st-step/ubuntu10.04-live/
-http://tomoyo.sourceforge.jp/1.7/1st-step/centos5-live/ .
-Though these tutorials use non-LSM version of TOMOYO, they are useful for you
-to know what TOMOYO is.
-
---- How to enable TOMOYO? ---
-
-Build the kernel with CONFIG_SECURITY_TOMOYO=y and pass "security=tomoyo" on
-kernel's command line.
-
-Please see http://tomoyo.sourceforge.jp/2.3/ for details.
-
---- Where is documentation? ---
-
-User <-> Kernel interface documentation is available at
-http://tomoyo.sourceforge.jp/2.3/policy-reference.html .
-
-Materials we prepared for seminars and symposiums are available at
-http://sourceforge.jp/projects/tomoyo/docs/?category_id=532&language_id=1 .
-Below lists are chosen from three aspects.

-
---- What is future plan? ---
-
-We believe that inode based security and name based security are complementary
-and both should be used together. But unfortunately, so far, we cannot enable
-multiple LSM modules at the same time. We feel sorry that you have to give up
-SELinux/SMACK/AppArmor etc. when you want to use TOMOYO.
-
-We hope that LSM becomes stackable in future. Meanwhile, you can use non-LSM
-version of TOMOYO, available at http://tomoyo.sourceforge.jp/1.7/ .
-LSM version of TOMOYO is a subset of non-LSM version of TOMOYO. We are planning
-to port non-LSM version's functionalities to LSM versions.
