We should probably do it in pretty much the same way we handle

o Look into moving our Mac building/testing system into a virtual

machine or leased server sort of environment so that multiple Nmap

developers can access it and nobody has to keep a stack of Mac Minis

o We should work to reduce Zenmap's memory consumption. Right now we
|

commonly get error reports from people who load so many systems that

Zenmap gives an out of memory error and crashes. For example, see

this thread: http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2014/q2/46

o In an ideal world, Zenmap would not run out of memory and crash.
|

And we already have an entry for improving Zenmap's memory
|

consumption. But in the meantime, we should catch the error and
|
||||
present a more useful error message/explanation so the user
|

understands the problem. This should reduce the number of
|

out-of-memory "crash reports" we get too. See

o Adopt an issue tracking system for Nmap and related tools. We

should probably look at our needs and options and then decide on and

either install it on our own infrastructure or use it hosted elsewhere.
