i'm essentially saying that Virtuozzo devs work on Virtuozzo - payed version - and do as much as they can to make OpenVZ users happy, but with no additional devs/QA efforts (which are unpayed, sorry).
And building stable kernels + readykernel patches - are efforts, it cannot be automated.
And TESTING them are BIG efforts, because tests do fail and QA (humans!) have to investigate issues.
Quote:2. The Virtuozzo devs think it's acceptable to leave their kernel vulnerable on countless OpenVZ 7 systems because the people that are using it should be paying you for a full Virtuozzo license if they want security.
Surely not. i personally just think that people who use OpenVZ (and want to save their money) are quite experienced (otherwise how do they run business without support?).
And if so, they can build kernels with security fixes themselves. This is a payment for saving money.
And again - this is my personal opinion only,
and people who make business decisions might have different ones.
If your problem is solved - please, report it!
It's even more important than reporting the problem itself...
