Sorry to disappoint.

Sorry to disappoint.

I'm sorry to disappoint all you folks with those tantalizing screenshots of Smolt reporting SELinux data. I want to clear up some of the misunderstandings involved in understanding how Smolt will work in the future. When the user installs the latest version of Smolt, a cron job is set up to run at some random time in the month. In the best case scenario we have even distribution over every minute of the first 28 days of the month. In the middle case scenario, we will have even distribution for each of the first 28 days of the month. If you are running a lab with 10,000 machines that you only turn on once a month, I ask that you please hand modify Smolt not to crash our servers. We're banking on you not actually existing.

This means, that from the day the new version of Smolt hits all the repos, it will take anywhere between 28 to 31 days for all the data to be considered 'current', assuming they all upgrade that day. I hesitate to use that term, because there will still be a number of machines that are considered 'stale' and they'll have null data for SELinux as well. In other words, ignore all percentages. The only information that you will have the actual number counts.

I apologize that I haven't had the time to fix all the ugly reporting issues we've had. Man hours aren't cheap.
