Hi,

many missing depedencies and missing include files
have been resolved already, but still a number of issues are open.

I'd like to have this a bit steamlined and pushed with
the following ideas. Please let me know what you think.
Also, it would be great to have a volunteer to take
care of the coordination of this task. Anyone willing
to spend time until the last missing NASL is resolved?
(the coordinator should also take care of high quality
resolving, ie. that no functionality is lost or rationale/explanation
is provided in case functionality is dropped).

* the status of missing-deps.txt, missing-deps-per-file.txt
   and missing-deps-most-wanted.txt
    needs to be updated.

* it would be cool to have a file "missing_nasl.txt" similar to
   "cve_current.txt" that lists any missing dependency and
   missing include where people can add their name to state
   they work on it. The rest is marked "looking for a developer to take".
 
* Some scripts have dependencies to a number of vendor specific
   issues (eg. for many macosx, for many solaris, for several redhat).
   I really wonder why this need to be this way. An analysis would be
   appreciated. Too me it looks like a broken concept.

* Our top most wanted dep is webmirror.nasl.
   I've seen GPL ones in old GPL feed tar balls.

All the best

        Jan
