Policies need to be maintained for 3 Fedora version when Icinga is approved as a package: 2 stable ones and the upcoming version - at this stage I will go for Fedora 18 (latest stable) first...

Is there a test plan for testing new Icinga versions before releasing I can use for testing SELinux support? e.g. MUST: Login to Icinga-GUI MUST: Acknowledge service problems MUST: ...

Can't sponsor it yet, as I haven't done packaging for Fedora in an official way yet.
