Nice, thank you.

Currently i only have a few comments:

-By default, Linux users run unconfined in Fedora, which is why the
testfile file is labeled with the SELinux unconfined_u user

+testfile is labeled with the SELinux unconfined_u user because a unix
user that is mapped to the unconfined_u SELinux user created the file.

Maybe you can mention "semanage boolean' instead of /or besides
get/setsebool.

semanage can do it as well and it might be easier for people that do not
know better if a lot of this stuff is done in a centralized place.

I think dwalsh is working on getting semanage to do most of this stuff.
So that one doesnt have to use 4 different utils to get something done.

semanage boolean -{d|m} [--on|--off|-1|-0] -F boolean | boolean_file
