[ TODO ]


- (when openvas-scanner 3.0.0  is available in Debian) Drop the
  openvas-plugins-base package and do not openvas-plugins-dfsg Depend: on it
  anymore (due to file conflicts in the NES files)

- Find scripts refering to the Nessus Sript License and modify them
  to refer to the GPL instead

[ REGULARLY ]
- Update the plugins to the latest SVN release and change the package
  numbering to reflect dates

[ PENDING INFORMATION ]

- Review if the advisories' based scripts can be provided, even though they are
  GPL it is unclear what the copyright and licensing of the advisories text
  is:

    * Mandrake/Mandriva:  
      mdksa_20YY_NNN.nasl 
      gb_mandriva_MDKSA_20YY_NNN.nasl
      gb_mandriva_MDVSA_20YY_NNN.nasl

        There is no statement of licensing in the Mandriva site.

        20100320 - Requested clarification to Security Team and Webmaster Team

    * CentOS: ovcesa20YY_NNN.nasl and gb_CESA-20YY_NNN.nasl 
        There is no public webpage with the advisories, they are only distributed
        through mailing list

        20100320 - Requested clarification to Security Team

  Note: Advisories auto-generated can be found by running the
     debian/extra/find-auto-generated script

[ DONE ]
