dev -- Nmap development work, early release announcements, & bug reports
About dev	English (USA)
The Nmap dev list is intended to facilitate the development of the free Nmap Security Scanner. It provides an unmoderated forum for people to contribute ideas, patches, suggestions, etc. We also discuss the pros and cons of proposed changes to Nmap. Thus this list also serves as a sort of developmental "steering committee". New (test/beta) versions of Nmap may sometimes be released here prior to general availability for quality assurance purposes. Anyone hardcore enough to subscribe to nmap-dev should probably also subscribe to the Nmap announcement list (https://nmap.org/mailman/listinfo/announce), a moderated list for Nmap-related announcements. This list is reasonably high volume (sometimes 10+ posts per day). Archives are available at http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/. Non-members can post, but such posts go through moderation to prevent spam. To see the collection of prior postings to the list, visit the dev Archives.
