Standard disclaimer: I know next-to-nothing about SEL. That said, I've 
been reading Russell Coker's posts on the LUV lists for quite some 
time, and in his sig he has a bunch of URLs leading to his sites - 
including one for SEL, http://www.coker.com.au/selinux/. There's a heap 
of reading material there, which might help you work out whether you 
think FC3 is a good thing or not. I don't know whether you feel like 
asking Russell himself about your queries - but he seems pretty 
approachable (particularly if you do a bit of reading first).

Cheers,
