Really? I doubt that the effort to get the next release of
debian to a state where we can ock down a out of the box install or
virtual machine with selinux strict policy is going to get any
consideration at all.
All the short first release cyce seems to do is to ensure that
canonical's LTS will always be a more compelling product than a Debian
release, being slightly newer and improved. Does not sound like a win
for Debian (just makes us even more irrelevant).
