 484 * Thu Jul 7 2005 Chris PeBenito <selinux@tresys.com> - 20050707
 485 - Changed xml to have modules encapsulated by layer tags, rather
 486   than putting layer="foo" in the module tags.  Also in the future
 487   we can put a summary and description for each layer.
 488 - Added tool to infer interface, module, and layer tags.  This will
 489   now list all interfaces, even if they are missing xml docs.
 490 - Shortened xml tag names.
 491 - Added macros to declare interfaces and templates.
 492 - Added interface call trace.
 493 - Updated all xml documentation for shorter and inferred tags.
 494 - Doc tool now displays templates in the web pages.
 495 - Doc tool retains the user's settings in modules.conf and
 496   tunables.conf if the files already exist.
 497 - Modules.conf behavior has been changed to be a list of all
 498   available modules, and the user can specify if the module is
 499   built as a loadable module, included in the monolithic policy,
 500   or excluded.
 501 - Added policies:
 502         fstools (fsck, mkfs, swapon, etc. tools)
 503         logrotate
 504         inetd
 505         kerberos
 506         nis (ypbind and ypserv)
 507         ssh (server, client, and agent)
 508         unconfined
 509 - Added infrastructure for targeted policy support, only missing
 510         transition boolean support.
