-  * This release offers [http://danwalsh.livejournal.com/13376.html Kiosk] functionality via SELinux, among many new enhancements and security policy changes.

+  * This release offers [http://danwalsh.livejournal.com/13376.html Kiosk] functionality via SELinux, among many new enhancements and security policy changes.  This release eliminates the separate strict SELinux policy, since improvements from the strict policy have been merged to a single targeted policy package.
  
   * The `glibc` package in Fedora 8 now has [http://people.redhat.com/drepper/sha-crypt.html support] for passwords using SHA256 and SHA512 hashing.  Before only DES and MD5 were available.  The tools to create passwords have not been extended yet, but if such passwords are created in others ways, `glibc` will recognize and honor them.
