Hi Ricardo,

I'll just answers about the Nmap related features, to which I am directly
related to (I'm the GSoC student in charge of that one).

I can definitely work on that. Of course I need more details about what you
have in mind... I'm not a very experienced network administrator, so
sometimes it might be useful to understand exactly which are the killer
features.

After I finish integrating Nmap with PackeFence (which is in course right
now), we can discuss this implementation. It will be fun to contribute with
such improvements.
