It's probably prest to enforcing then.

If you use Gnome, there's a "security level" control GUI listed in the
adminstration menu.

I installed FC5 about a week ago on my web server (was FC1 or 2 I
believe) and have left the SELinux to default settings and it works
well other than I had to use semanage to add permissions for httpd on
a non-standard port. At home I did a fresh install as well (was using
FC4 at home). For my home system I used the GUI to change SELinux to
none as I was having a minor flash plugin install problem. Turns out
that wasn't the issue, just a few cobwebs in my head that day I guess.
But some of the comments I've seen on the list is that for a home
user it's not really a security problem to disable SELinux. But for a
server they recommend it.

Other than that I am very impressed with FC5. I also note faster
bootup as well as faster starting of applications. Two thumbs up here
as well.
