Suggestion for handling attribution

Open sethsec opened this issue 9 years ago • 1 comments

Instead of having "LAST UPDATED BY:" in the template, how about handling contributions the way NMAP NSE's do, where you just list all of the people who have made contributions to that template on an "author(s)" line. In practice, if you make a contribution, you just append your name to the list of authors. I foresee multiple people having a hand in many of these findings, and it would be nice to see which ones have had the most eyes on them.

For example, from the http-enum nmap NSE script:

author = "Ron Bowes, Andrew Orr, Rob Nicholls"

Ya, I didn't like how I had that set up in the first place and din't really have an idea how to fix it. I like your suggestion, I'll try it out and see how it looks
