Still a Tresys employee.

Karl MacMillan:

Rumors continue to spread as to the current whereabouts of Mr. MacMillan, aka "KMAC". Some say he found his way back to Tresys, but a search of tresys.com yields no evidence. Like the elusive BigFoot, KMAC sightings are rare and fleeting. Recent reports may indicate he is volunteering on the Obama campaign as the webmaster in the Baldwin county Alabama office. Supposedly KMAC won the candidate over with an intriguing explanation of SELinux netlink object classes analagized to Australian rules football and a glass of KMAC's trademark fried okra mojito.
