Leave of Absence

Alex Hardman — Sat, 26 Feb 2005 01:20:37 -0000

I will be taking a leave of absence for some time. I have become too busy to continue development of the aivis project. This is unfortunate considering the possiblities aivis presented for the future of information security, and system administration. Hopefully, I will be able to return to development sooner, rather then later.

Aivis's first release. Version 0.1a-pre-alpha

Alex Hardman — Fri, 08 Oct 2004 10:24:14 -0000

We have finally released the first pre-alpha version of code. It contains everything done up to this point. It was pulled from the daily snapshot of the cvs so it may not compile, although from last report it all does. It is version 0.1a-pre-alpha. The most important thing in this release is the mail parsing scripts and the core functionality of some of the host package. Keep and eye out for the next release as it should provide a great deal of changes from this release, including a complete/almost complete rewrite of all of the java code, as well as the first vulnerability management code.

AIVIS explained

Alex Hardman — Wed, 29 Sep 2004 16:15:49 -0000

A new technical document has been released by the aivis team (link at bottom). This document details the high-level functions that make up aivis. It is from a technical standpoint. A basic english translation is coming as soon as it can be generated. Additionally you should be aware that these are the "planned" functions. This is where the project would like to go, not where we are now.

The A.I.I.V.S project is now building nightly source tarballs. The tarball includes javadocs from all java source code. You can download it from the aivis webpage. We have also put up a java chat interface to our irc channel (#aivis on irc.ircstorm.net). Feel free to stop in and talk to any developers that may be lounging about.

The A.I.V.I.S project team has been formed. We now have a few developers, our web team and a very experience document maintainer. We have already begun work on design system parameters and specifications. Please visit http://aivis.sf.net to get the latest updates. From there you can visit the project page and learn more about what the aivis system will be able to do for you through our documentation.

Thank you,
