I have recently run across some information on an adaptation of the android
OS based on SE Linux called Android SE (Secure Edition) 
http://selinuxproject.org/page/SEAndroid here is a link . Although it
appears to still be in a somewhat experimental stage, there seems to be some
support for the idea that this may be the OS that various government bodies
adopt as the standard for their Android devices. In a presentation given at
the 2011 Linux Security Summit the author states that "Almost everything
above the kernel is different - Dalvik VM, application frameworks ... ".
Based on this statement and the fact that the 
http://www.mono-project.com/FAQ:_Technical mono project FAQ  states that
there are problems with some applications under Fedora Core 5 when SELinux
is turned on, I am assuming that there is little chance that monodroid will
support Android SE in the near term. My question is: is that assumption
correct? If so, is anyone on the team tracking the progress of SELinux
and/or Android SE or planning to support it in the future? Thanks.
