Oh, I see: you're the CIO? So you can mandate this. Not having ever been
anywhere near a management position, and all of my managers (with three
exceptions, one small, and two microscopically small) being at least 3
levels of managment down from VP level, and mostly they have no clue about
selinux, if they're not Windows-centric, not where I live.
