Hello nmap-dev.

This week's highlight was the release of Ncrack 0.2ALPHA which has already
been announced at http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2010/q2/827


Accomplishments:

* Completed testing of modules with valgrind.

* Fixed some memory leaks.

* Improved HTTP module.

* Fixed a timeout-related error which was due to the way Nsock caches
  its time values to avoid too many gettimeofday() system calls,
  leading to Ncrack thinking that negative time had elapsed in some
  cases.

* Fixed bug which caused an endless loop before Ncrack could exit
  properly.

* Made Nsock configuration (NoPcap) for Windows, so that Ncrack and Nmap
  can share Nsock.

* Wrote CHANGELOG file.

* Created source-code tarball, Windows setup-executable and a dmg
  installer (made by David) for Ncrack 0.2ALPHA release.

* Updated Ncrack website.

* Created a first version of Ncrack website logo.

* Released Ncrack 0.2ALPHA.

* Got some feedback on username/password file-format improvements.



Priorities

* Discuss with Fyodor on next TODO things.
* Start improving the Ncrack engine.
* Start coding additional protocol modules.
