Has anyone else contemplating making a new OVAL test to support the new Ubuntu snappy package manager? Since Ubuntu can now support both dpkg and snappy, if content authors want to know all packages installed, I'm guessing they will need to query two different systems? http://twit.altervista.org/linux/ubuntu/468-468.html https://developer.ubuntu.com/en/snappy/start/using-snappy/ Just figured I'd reach out to see if someone is already working this before going down the same path.

Hi Jack, We’re not currently working on a snappy_test, but I’d be happy to work with you on the proposal. Best regards, --David A.

Thanks David, we aren't quite ready either, just putting it on our roadmap. I'll reach out privately when we get there.
