Writing SCAP isn&#39;t the only way to contribute :)<br>
<br>
If you can create guidance (just text) for a tool, people here can help convert to \
XCCDF. On the OVAL side, if you can help us understand what regex/files/system \
attributes need to be examined for a pass/fail, that&#39;s a huge jumping off point \
too.<span class=""><br> <br>

Skimming the code, likely a bug.   Do you mind opening a ticket? The OVAL code checks \
to see if aide is installed:<br> <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 \
