SSG is not just for DoD, I sure hope!

I'm sure there are many CentOS deployments in .gov, I believe there are
several just in my agency alone. Do we really want to not support them, or
force them into manual edits to get scans to work?

I've seen nothing announced on CentOS roadmap. More information would be
good.
