My personal feeling is that the FAQ was great and indispensable when it was created, back around FC3 when we were still trying to rally people around all it could do. Plus, I think Karsten cut off a huge chunk of time (of which he was already short) to put this together with some other Red Hat principals like Dan, because he saw it was necessary to get the info some publicity. I think those who are not sold on it at this point are sticking their heads in the sand and you should probably graduate this to doing a real guide. :-) As we've already noted, the material that's in the FAQ is still 75-90% very applicable because of its general nature. In some cases the tools are more robust, and guidance needs to be added or amended (like setroubleshoot/sealert or system-config-selinux). One thing I hear often from people is "How do I interpret this AVC message? How do I know what to do about it?" I'm sure there are others you can pick up on fedoraforum.org, and use them to feed the use cases, and thus the supporting outline material I alluded to earlier. It's great that you're interested in doing this work -- it will probably be read by thousands, SERIOUSLY! :-) -- Paul W.
