Yes, perhaps with a dedicated maintainer -- woohoo, Marc! :-) -- this is the way to go. It would probably mean reformatting into subject matter areas as opposed to the Q&A format. That's mostly a matter of copy + paste + DocBook tagging. I bet that if you go over some of Dan's material with a system (preferably a VM!) in hand, you'll understand a lot more of it very quickly. I actually wrote a smidge of policy the other day and put it in place to test something at work, and his instructions were on the spot! > P.S.

You might want to lay out some specific questions for him, as I would imagine he's very busy working on policy, but from all accounts and prior experience, he's an extremely affable and helpful guy. He may even point you to other outside docs that could be helpful for you to understand SELinux better, and then write some cases yourself. -- Paul W.
