[Yuichi Nakamura]

Hi.

SELinux Policy Editor 1.3.1 has been released.
About SELinux Policy Editor, visit http://seedit.sourceforge.net/

(1) Notice
This release includes Simplified Policy only. 
GUI is not included, it will be re-developped.
It is development version, may be unstable.
And tested only in Fedora Core4.

(2) Changes
* audit2spdl utility
 It works like audit2allow, generates simplified policy from log.
 You do not have to remember detail of simplified policy syntax.
* Detailed permission for files support
 For users who want more security, new permission a(Append),t(seTattr), 
 c(Create), e(Erace),o(Overwrite) can be used.
* Documentation 
 Documentation about what permissions are integrated, unsupported by simplified policy is prepared.
 Verifying security of Simplified Policy has become easier.
 See http://seedit.sourceforge.net/doc/permission_integrate/
* Generation of above document using XML/Python

(3) How to use
First get seedit-converter-1.3.1-1.i386.rpm and seedit-policy-1.3.1-FC4.noarch.rpm from 
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=135756
How to install is the same as 1.2,

For detail, see manual at http://seedit.sourceforge.net/doc_devel/simplified_policy_manual/

(4) Plan
- XML support to be handled easily by UI tools
- New GUI 
- Review security of simplified policy, prepare document
