Hi, |

I've started to work on a tool to apply security updates to a gentoo |
4 |
system by checking the GLSA. It uses a XML format of the GLSA and |
5 |
updates the affected packages to the fixed versions (well, not at the |
6 |
moment as I've started this only yesterday). Currently the GLSA are only |
7 |
sent to a mailinglist in plaintext AFAIK and posted on the forums/GWN. |

I've put together a DTD for the XML format by looking through a few GLSA |
10 |
and xml-fied the latest GLSA for nfs-utils. Both documents are available |
11 |
at http://gentoo.devel-net.org/glsa/ . This is just a draft, any |
12 |
suggestions for improvements are welcome as are all comments on this |
13 |
mini-project. |

|
15 |
I'll put some code on the site as soon as it is useful, the current |
16 |
implemention is still in a very early development state and most work |
17 |
has gone to the backend by now. |
