The two project run entirely separately, with very little indication that
there will ever be any cooperation between them.

        # [14:43:11]   Dink        Hello, I have several questions about 
openvas. 1) Can I use my current professional feed of nessus and use it on 
openvas? 2) How does the plugins compare to nessus? ie Release schedule, 
accuracy etc 3) Are there any good reporting/analysis tools for openvas ?

        # [14:45:01]   Dink        and 4) Can I use openvas client to connect 
to my nessus server? I tried and only seemed to be able to use OTP vs NTP.
        # [14:47:09]   [machine]   dink: maybe, although legally, i believe the 
nessus license prevents you 2) plugins vary... not least of which, because we 
check for issues that nessus misses and vice versa 3) anything that can import 
nbe should be fine 4) nope, the underlying protocols are significantly changed
        # [14:47:20]   mwiegand    Dink: 1) This is explictly forbidden in your 
license agreement with Tenable.
        # [14:48:39]   Dink        3) Any suggestions on reporting/analysis 
tools ?
        # [14:49:16]   [machine]   mwiegand: i'm pretty sure tenable would be 
unable to enforce that license in europe...

    # [03:39:51]   Dink        Hello I currently have a professional feed of 
nessus. Is it possible to somehow incorporate this into openvas?
    # [06:11:32]   mib_dv9ygk  Dink you carefully have to read the 
license/eula/contract. I just know that its says that you cannot use the free 
feed with anything non-tenable
