I just wanted to note that I have had much more difficulty knowing if I 
have control over my network devices since the 2.6.30 kernel.  Network 
control (Internet) is the only reason I use SELinux.  If there is new 
and improved documentation for the usage of the network controls, I 
would greatly appreciate knowing about it.
