Re: a nessus developpers joke?



what a all full_of_crap email .. can't believe this..

statement: this is a buggy version (which seems to be true).

nothing else.

So, i back him up stating that this looked to be buggy version and
that you'd expect to have a non buggy version (even if old), in a
stable software. 

This is nothing against the nessus package.

So, i really thing and your email and your tone is innapropriate !
