[Lilug] What is the perfect meeting topic?

[odinson]

Hi Chuck and Jorg

I would love to hear a SELinux Howto!

Jorg can we pencil you in for June and Chuck can we pencil you in for 
July?  We've had pretty severe problems with collisions recently.  Like to 
avoid it happening again.

Thank you very much both!

Matt
