[OSVDB-discuss] XML will be updated? (I think so, but..)

Dear all,

In the OSSIM project we use the OSVDB database to do cross-correlation and 
some other things.

I noticed today that you changed some database tables and information. Also, I 
noticed that the XML file where you distributed the database won't be the 
main source anymore.

We have some scripts wich extract information from OSVDB and generates some 
cross correlation with it, but the scripts uses directly the XML file, not 
the database.

So, my question is: will you continue updating the XML file? I saw in your 
website that you won't support anymore the import XML scripts, but the XML 
dumps will remain and be updated. 
I just would like to be almost sure that the XML file will be updated as well 
as the database. If you stop to update the XMl file, we will rewrite our 
scripts to extract data from database, that's why I would need to know it.

Thanks for your great product! :)

Regards,
Alberto.
