Version 1.0 of the SELinux Policy IDE (SLIDE) from Tresys is now
available for download from the Tresys Open Source website at
http://oss.tresys.com. 

SLIDE is an Eclipse plug-in that integrates with the SELinux Reference
Policy to provide a development environment for building SELinux policy.

SLIDE features:

* A graphical user interface for policy development, including policy
syntax highlighting, context suggestions, and integrated compilation.
* Integration with SELinux Reference Policy, including quick lookup and
documentation for interfaces.
* Wizards and easy to use templates to automate common tasks from
creating a new SELinux policy to adding an interface into an existing
module.
* Integrated remote policy installation and audit log monitoring, to
facilitate policy testing.
* Seamless integration with the power of standard Eclipse.

Version 1.0 highlights:

* Integration of online help into the SLIDE plugin.

The first release of the SELinux Policy IDE (called SLIDE) from Tresys is
available for download on the Tresys website.  Also, there is a sourceforge
project site with screenshots and some documentation.

http://tresys.com/selinux/index.shtml

http://selinux-ide.sourceforge.net/index.php

The tool is an eclipse plug-in that integrates with reference policy and
should hopefully be found useful.  It is still under development as this is
just an initial release.
