Fedora Core DistroWatch has reviewed Fedora 8. They conclude: "Overall, I truly believe that Fedora 8 is by far the best Fedora release to date (and I've tried every one of them). From the look and feel of the system, to the out-of-the-box configuration during installation, I couldn't be happier with a cutting edge release. As I mentioned before, the biggest aspects of a successful distribution for me are suspend/hibernate, correct screen resolution and the the ability to change the screen resolution in a GUI if it didn't configure it correctly the first time, system stability, and overall look and feel of a distribution. For me, Fedora 8 has excelled in all categories when I evaluate and review a system and I hope that Fedora continues to release versions that are put together as good as Fedora 8 has been."

I'm not sure where he got the idea that setroubleshoot (that's the name of the system) only works in permissive mode. It works in permissive and enforcing on Fedora 8 and RHEL 5.

Ah. The "works for me" school of QA. ;-)

Possibly he was joking about the number of things that get erroneously snared by the current targeted policies. Possibly his setroubleshoot was snared. There have been a few things that have been broken by SELinux on systems I support that others swear up and down work just fine on theirs.
