I am interested in the IPC security system. From what I have been able to find 
so far, from reading l4-hurd documents, the security architecture that seems 
the most appropriate to use with a dynamic component system like the     
l4-hurd, is something similar to Clans & Chief and IPC redirect 
architectures.

My problem was I couldn't find more details about what has been thought 
exactly for the L4-hurd so far. So instead I base my opinion on papers I 
found on the net, discussing about security architecture for component-based 
systems,and IPC redirect. Maybe I did work which has been done already ... in 
that case I hope that it can still help improve the current work ;-)
