o We added the SEQ.CI value in Feb 2009 with 0 matchpoints. At some
point (once we have some real-life values) we need to evaluate whether
we want to give it points. A good time to do that would be when we
next do fingerprint integration, so we will actually have examples
of .CI in the nmap-os-db.
o [NSE] Get rid of ceil so that floating point NSE runlevels work
again (some scripts, including (smb-brute) rely on this. They got
broken with the NSE core lua rewrite. [Patrick].
o Make 4.85BETA9 release [Fyodor]
o Build x86 VM instance for RPM building. [Fyodor]
o Look into building RPMs with SSL support. Statically linking to
OpenSSL on Linux for the RPMs didn't work for me last time I
tried. [Fyodor]
o Ask Coverity if they'll scan latest version of Nmap. [Fyodor]
o Change Nmap signature files to use the .sig extension rather than
.gpg.txt, as that seems to be what gpg recommends. In fact, gpg
will automatically verify the right file if it exists after dropping
the .sig (or .asc) extension. I may need to configure .htaccess to
serve .sig files properly. Update nmap-install.xml
accordingly. Suggested by tic at eternalrealm.net by email on
