Hi Peter and Dimitri, Thanks for your responses. I think I am going to bite the bullet and put F18 into production. One of the elements that made that easier was recognizing that RHEL 7 was going to be based on Fedora of some sort, and a stripped-down Fedora with SELinux will be plenty secure while I wait for that convergence.
Cheers!
