There is no way. At first I thought this was a problem, but it's
actually a feature. What if the guys from python-ntlm change "the API"
? Imagine this situation:

- We auto-update the python-ntlm library from their SVN to our SVN every night
- They change the API
- We don't know they changed the API
- urlOpenerSettings.py becomes outdated
- urlOpenerSettings.py doesn't work anymore with NTLM
- We don't know nothing about it

I think that the best way to handle this is to check every two months
or so, if they released a new version of their library, and if some
important bug was fixed, update it in w3af.

No, not yet. It will be when I have the change to test it, or Adam /
Spinkham can do it.
