This is the June 2016 in review post. The previous monthly review post is here. The contents are:
pysyspol
I started the pysyspol project, a Python package that helps system administrators to enforce and implement syspol policies. It runs on CPython only.1
Other Python packages that help to implement and enforce private policies can depend on pysyspol. Just as with the policies themselves, if publishing code related to a particular policy doesn’t create serious security risks, consider sharing it by integrating it into pysyspol.
