Subject: [gentoo-hardened] Stabilizing the new selinux profiles

1 Hi everyone,
2
3 Back in May, I added new feature/selinux profiles which we would like to
4 stabilize soon. These were structured to parallel the
5 selinux/v2refpolicy profiles but with the idea that they could be added
6 as a feature to any existing profile.
7
8 There are no open bugs out against them, so we are clear to stabilize,
9 but I would like feedback from the community about their use, especially
10 since the next step might be to deprecate the older profiles. (Don't
11 panic! It would not happen anytime soon if at all. And you would get
12 ample warnings.)
13
14 Either we haven't hit any bugs with the new profiles because of low
15 usage or because there just aren't any, so community feedback about
16 their use and usefulness would be appreciated.
