Scheduled for Samba 2.2.0, along with NT printer driver support and
other oddities.  2.2.0 will be the next Samba release -- not long ago
we were calling it 2.0.8.  (It seems Jeremy has come to like the
versioning scheme used in Gtk+ and the Linux kernel.  That is one
reason we're skipping 2.1.x.)

Linux does not currently have any official support for ACLs.  The plan
is to support POSIX(-draft)-compliant ACL implementations, such as the
one at http://acl.bestbits.at/.
