Joe, I am not sure how this effects SELinux labeling, if it does at all.

Afaikt this does not affect selinux in anyway since these are configuration syntax changes for the most part.

If we take this example which is common as an default in various web applications...

What used to be...

<Directory "/var/www/example">
    Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
</Directory>

Will become...

<Directory "/var/www/example">
    Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
    Require all granted
</Directory>

etc...

So what we as an project will need to do, is to update our documentation and maintainers will have to update default apache configuration  to reflect the new configuration syntax for the application/package they maintain.

Administrators will have to updated their apache configuration(s) accordingly and or install the mod_access_compat module.

The new api changes can be found here [1].
