[Sorry, I meant "upstream" when referring to changes in yet-to-be
released software.]

Thanks, I'll check the latest refpolicy before submitting any patches.  

Sorry for all the rookie questions, but I assume that the svn repo at
http://oss.tresys.com/repos/refpolicy is still the official source for
reference policy?  And would I check the latest Fedora source for RHEL?
