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!  Brian
