Greetings,

An OpenSCAP Test Day is coming up tomorrow - Thursday 26th August:

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Day:2010-08-26_OpenSCAP

OpenSCAP is a tool for maintaining the security of systems, such as 
automatically verifying the presence of patches, checking system security 
configuration settings, and examining systems for signs of compromise. It is 
accepted as a feature for the upcoming Fedora 14 [1].

Security controls that are recommended by DISA[2] and NSA[3] for RHEL5 Desktop 
systems were migrated into Fedora and stored in SCAP content. Tools capable of 
handling with such a content are delivered too. So if this sounds interesting 
to you, now is the best time to give it a try! :)

Test instructions are easy to follow, you just go a few test cases and fill the 
results into a matrix. OpenSCAP developers are available for support and 
inquiries on an IRC channel.

The Test Day runs from 9:00 to 17:00 UTC [4] in #fedora-test-day on Freenode 
IRC.
Hope to see you there!
