[Dave Sugar <dsugar tresys com>]

Version 1.1 of the SELinux Policy IDE (SLIDE) from Tresys is now
available for download from the Tresys Open Source website at
http://oss.tresys.com.

SLIDE is an Eclipse plug-in that integrates with the SELinux Reference
Policy to provide a development environment for building SELinux policy.

SLIDE features:

* A graphical user interface for policy development, including policy
syntax highlighting, context suggestions, and integrated compilation.
* Integration with SELinux Reference Policy, including quick lookup and
documentation for interfaces.
* Wizards and easy to use templates to automate common tasks from
creating a new SELinux policy to adding an interface into an existing
module.
* Integrated remote policy installation and audit log monitoring, to
facilitate policy testing.
* Seamless integration with the power of standard Eclipse.

Version 1.1 highlights:

* Disabled interfaces indicated in module editor.
* Improved documentation on the open source web site.
* Updates to SLIDERemote to work with SETools version 3.1.
* Support for new fields in build.conf editor.
* Fixed problems with the Console output.


If you would like to contribute, currently the best help would be to
test and provide feedback on the SLIDE plugin and SLIDE Remote.
