SELinux on Cebit report

SELinux on Cebit report

[Tom]

On friday afternoon, Carsten and me held a presentation about SELinux
at the Linuxpark on Cebit, europes largest computer technology fair.

The presentation was about 45 minutes, plus 20 minutes of questions,
overdrawing the alloted timeslot considerably, which wasn't a problem
as we were the last presentation that day.

The audience area was small, but packed. My guess would be about 60 or
so people, though I'm pretty bad at guesses like that. There were many
questions, and the audience was very interested and present.

Amin Ott from RSBAC was also there, he held a presentation about RSBAC
earlier that day and was in the audience of our presentation, just as I
had listened to his. He's a nice guy, we had a good talk afterwards,
and I learned that he actually lives in the same city as I do. :)


The most interesting result here was that a good part of the audience
had apparently heard about SELinux before, and when Carsten asked who
is already using SELinux, a good number of hands went up. This is quite
different from my earlier experiences, where only a minority of the
audience seemed to have had any prior exposure.

New Debian (SID) test box online

[Ed Street]

Hello,

Just thought I'd drop everyone a line and say I have a Debian test box
online and functional for public testing.  This is not to be used for IRC or
psybnc junk, no floods, no DOS; this is not a public hosting service and the
like.  The status page can be found at http://selinux.simplyaquatics.com if
anyone is interested.

I am also putting together a presentation for my local LUG in Columbus, GA
to be given on May 7th if anyone is in the area and wants to attend.  On my
main page I have a rough draft of the presentation which will be a basic
intro to hopefully help educate the local Linux population as to what
selinux can do for them.

Ed
