Actually, Russell is being too harsh with himself. :)

One thing that was mentioned was the lack of background material (like
an explanation of the flask concept), which would of course have been
impossible to include in that timeframe.

Nevertheless, I think it would help SELinux and it's popularity, if a
short and easy-to-understand summary of the concept were available.
I've read the whitepaper and it isn't exactly something you can read on
the train and hope to understand.
Not that I'd be able to do a better job, though I'd be glad to help
anyone out who tries to write such a document with comments and
editorial help if requested.
