System-settings is gui tools. I know how to disable SELinux from terminal too. YaST provide option to manipulate AppArmor with GUI or ncurses tools.

By error of some builders, all pay by they? (talking about of GNOME). If a lot users wants include these tool, dont see for other way. Is not community value that defend Fedora. Gnome tweak tool should stay on Desktop edition. I guess.

For example, need show I guess that Fedora can brings is innovates. I think that bit people known that Fedora run as compatibility environment on BSD systems such as FreeBSD, OpenBSD and PC-BSD. Or Fedora first provided -PAE branch kernel, uses first PulseAudio, uses SELinux tool to have a good protection, Fedora and Sugar environment selectes by OLPC project.. And more. And more on lack spanish too..

I know that Koji is only build on RPM and is good choice. Libux standard base promotes.RPM as default system package. However, all packagers of Fedora not known Koji exist or some body wants uses it for build packages.
