Thanks for your email, and mostly for your patience in sending it
again to the mailing list.

Yes, there is no documentation on how w3af works internally, that's correct.

On the other side, I'm always here and on IRC to answer any questions
you (or anyone else might have). I would love to see more
contributors, and that's why I help each new person that approaches
the project with all my time.

It was a GREAT idea, but since it was an external project and w3af
evolved fast since w3afRemote creation, it is now obsolete. The w3af
version wrapped/exposed by w3afRemote is too old and buggy.

The roadmap is here [0], to sum up:
 * 1.6.1 - Bug fixing after 1.6 <---- we're here
 * 1.7.0 - Increase WAVSEP Coverage and add long vulnerability descriptions
 * 1.7.2 - Multiple domain names as target
 * 1.7.5 Scanning sites with anti-CSRF tokens
 * 1.8.0 - JavaScript crawler
 * 1.9 - Specific vendor support release
 * 2.0 - REST API

So... it seems that you're out of luck. A lot of works needs to be
done before we even start thinking about a due date for the REST API.

There are several options at this point:
 * Your (big banking) company supports w3af, codes the REST API and
releases it GPLv2.0
 * Your (big banking) company supports w3af by hiring me as a
freelance developer to work on the REST API and the code gets released
as GPLv2.0
 * You choose any other scanner and pay more ;)
