No no, everyone knows you don't build simpler things on top of more
complicated ones, you go the other way around. So what he was
suggesting was that selinux be re-written on top of smack.
Having gone from proposing a simpler and easier to use security system
as an alternative to SELinux, you now propose to change the one working
security system we have. And yes, it's hard to use, but it works. Let's
keep this a patch, people who want adventure can have one, and people
who have gotten Linux accepted "if SELinux is enabled" will avoid one.
