All,

Version 5.11 Release Candidate 1 is now available for community review and comment. Attached is the change log for a full list of updates in this release.

https://github.com/OVALProject/Language/tree/5.11-rc-1

https://github.com/OVALProject/Language/wiki#retrieving-a-specific-revision

This Release Candidate includes support for several new platform schemas migrated from the OVAL Sandbox [1] as voted upon by the OVAL Board [2]. Some of these community contributions expands on the possible collection endpoints to include the mobile platforms Android and Apple iOS, and the network management protocol NETCONF. Changes made to the existing Independent, Windows, Linux, Solaris, and Cisco IOS schemas include new Tests, improved enumeration options, and clarified documentation. The Windows accesstoken_test, user_test, and group_test have all been deprecated in this version of the Language in favor of newer tests to address identified limitations. This is not a full list of all changes to be expected from the official OVAL 5.11 Language release, as other proposals are still being voted on by the OVAL Board.

Please let us know if you have any questions or discover any issues while reviewing this Release Candidate.

Thanks,

David Rothenberg
