The current core security documentation has become very fragmented and out of date. It was assembled out of fragments of old documents with during the move to Wiki-based documentation in Fedora 3.0. The documentation for security related to aspects of many of security documentation in the individual APIs is fairly accurate but the there is little flow back to the security section of the core documentation.

Please, don't assume if you spot a problem you will be asked to fix it — we will be asking the person who has the most knowledge to do that (although help is always appreciated). Also, don't be concerned if you don't like to write — let's just get the accurate material and we can get the help of a technical writing to smooth it out (likely Dan).
