Is VulnDetect dead?

Armin

I receive the weekly Digest for the forums by email.

If I look at the last 2 weeks, then no user of the group "VulnDetect Employees" posted a reply (neither @Tom nor @VulnDetect).
These are the only users in the group "VulnDetect Team Member" where I see the description "VulnDetect Employees".

I saw many posts from @OLLI_S but this user is in the group "Community Moderator" (description "Trusted members who has been assigned special privileges").
So I assume that @OLLI_S is a user like me that just has special privileges.

So I really wonder what is wrong here.
When an official "VulnDetect Team Member" is not replying for 2 weeks (also not in this post here).
This is sad, very sad,

Maybe @Tom should be more active here in the forums.

@Armin Yes, I am a "normal" user that helps making the project a really cool and awesome tool.

I know that @Tom and the others of VulnDetect are working on new features (mainly for the business UI but we private users also benefit from then).
There are many rules that must be kept up-to-date, many security news must be read, vulnerability-informations must be collected and updates for applications must be packaged (some apps can be updated by VulnDetect with one mouse click).

You also should know that I am in personal contact with @Tom nearly every day (Telegram chat) so he is really alive and working hard on the project.
He just needs to make the process a bit more transparent.
And he should look in the forums more often and answer postings.
I am going to tell him and kick his lazy butt (he sometimes needs that ).

Tom

@Armin I agree with you, I really should.

I have come into a very bad habit of relying on OLLI to send me messages on Telegram and responding to him. I really should move the communication here and start replying to all.

OLLI_S

@Tom You should solve the detection issues and add requested apps....

@Tom : May I suggest that you also put the date for latest release of the agent in title of the relevant pinned post in "Announcement".
As prefix ?
Regards.

Tom

@GregAlexandre Good idea.
I suffixed it, so it is consistent with the other changelog.

https://vulndetect.org/category/1/announcements

Is this good enough?

OLLI_S

@Tom Should I update the feature requests, that are available in the Business UI with [Work in progress] or with any other text (like [Partly Implemented] )?

Tom

@OLLI_S If you wish, then I suppose that is a good idea. The only issue is that we may not implement all changes in the personal. But feel free.

GregAlexandre

@Tom : Great as usual

Armin

I am surprised (and very disappointed) that the feature "Additional Status for Update Available" (https://vulndetect.org/topic/492/additional-status-for-update-available) is not yet implemented or has at least the status "Work in progress".
Seems like the guys at VulnDetect are busy with other stuff that has not such a great benefit than that feature.
This is very very sad!
