We should probably do it in pretty much the same way we handle
Zenmap (configure.ac, Makefile.in, and ndiff/setup.pl)
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
in their closet.
o We should probably update our included libpcap. We currently
include version 1.2.1 (we upgraded to that in April 2012) while the
latest version on tcpdump.org is 1.5.2. We make minor changes to

This was initially reported by Timo Juhani Lindfors on the Debian
bug tracker: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=724580
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
http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2014/q2/298
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.
