Sussen 0.90 has been released. 

Sussen is a tool that checks for vulnerabilities and configuration
issues on computer systems. It is based on the Open Vulnerability and
Assessment Language (http://oval.mitre.org/).

We are getting closer to v1.0. The remaining items to do are to fix the
remaining bugs in bugzilla, clean up the look/feel of the web console.
The editor has been disabled for now, it won't be ready in time for 1.0,
but we'll keep working on it for the 1.1/1.2 branch.

We are also working on setting up an OVAL repository so we can provide
updated definitions in a more timely manner. I'll have more details on
that later.

Changes since 0.35:

* editor: Disabled editor; will continue development in 1.1/1.2 branch
* oval: Added initial support for OVAL 5.3
* oval: API documentation updated
* misc: Change license to GPL v3
* www: Various improvements to web console
* xml: Updated Ubuntu definitions for USNs 425-1 to 483-1
* xml: Updated Windows definitions from oval.mitre.org
