No PaX & grSecurity for Linux 2.6.8 releases and up. (Section: Hardened Kernels)
The developers of PaX wouldn’t port the patch to the latest release of the kernel sources (2.6.8.x and up) due to major changes in the code that are painful to solve.
(New) Patch-set for hardened kernels of 2.4 & 2.6 brands. (Section: Hardened Kernels)
There will be many changes against the patch-set of the hardened kernels.We will drop grsecurity and we will use another patches instead (some of them that are part of grsecurity).

Some of the words used in the Debian Hardened project, are registered trademarks and also, (national) legal restrictions.
