Actually, I think Andrew has a point. We who have been following Linux
since the early to mid 90's and subscribe to LKML and read LinuxToday,
LWN, and kerneltraffic on a daily basis do an awful lot of *expecting*
of newer Linux users to know an awful lot of things. This is not
fedora-devel-list. This is not fedora-test-list. This is fedora-list.
Fedora is the closest thing to a home desktop Linux that RedHat has and
this is the list for the latest stable version. I would *expect* that a
lot of newer Linux users would read it. I hope they do anyway. We
really need to drop this elitism thing. We can't afford it anymore.
To be clear, I'm not specifically criticizing the selinux announcement.
I'm just saying that in the months and years to come, it is in the best
interest of Linux and open source in general to recognize that the
audience is changing.
