[Oval-devel] OVAL Debian package

[Pavel Vinogradov]

  Hello, Chandra.

Yes, i'm still maintaining OVAL package in Debian. Currently i work on
packaging new upstream version 5.7.1 to include it in next Debian
release.
At this point most things are good.

But we have second point - dsa2oval definitions convertor. As i
remeber you already send some patches to improve it.
Currently i see three task for dsa2oval:

 * review source code of this converter for last 5.7.1 OVAL schema and
test it with current python version
 * think about support Ubuntu security advisories
 * packaging it and upload to Debian

Maybe you have own suggestion or ideas aboud improvements Oval and
Debian integration.
I'm open to collaborate in maintaining and improvement Oval and Debian
integration, please subscribe and use special (Debian) oval-devel
maillist <oval-devel at lists.alioth.debian.org> to keep all discussions
in one place.
