Hi OpenVAS community, I have been contacted by Tenable. They are pretty sure some plugins in openvas-plugins module are present that should not be there due to never being GPL licensed. Basically it should at least be anything that matches grep -i script_copyright.*Tenable.* scripts/* Just a clarification : I was referring to the list of plugins seen in the email than Jan sent to openvas-devel : http://lists.wald.intevation.org/pipermail/openvas-devel/2007-May/ 000315.html Whereby some plugins such as the Veritas Netbackup plugins have never been released in the GPL feed and whose release post-dates our license announcement nearly by a full year. The current Tenable GPL feed does indeed contains some scripts (C) Tenable which are explicitely released under the GPL (such as gpl_feed.nasl) - redistributing those is obviously allowed. -- Renaud ___ Openvas-discuss mailing list Openvas-discuss@wald.intevation.org http://lists.wald.intevation.org/mailman/listinfo/openvas-discuss
