Announcement: perl module Nmap::Scanner 0.9 released

Hello,
Nmap::Scanner is a perl module that provides an object-oriented,
programmatic interface to the nmap port scanning tool. It parses
the output of nmap's "XML" format (-oX). Nmap::Scanner provides
both batch-mode and event-driven usage models.
Version 0.9 of Nmap::Scanner is now available for download from
CPAN and Source Forge; this revision includes a number of bug
fixes and improvements over version .5, the last version I announced
on this list.
Major improvements:
* No longer relies on XML::SAX::PurePerl, can use any XML::SAX
compliant parser (contribution by David Blank-Edelman .. thank you!).
* Can scan from XML files created with nmap using the scan_from_file()
method of Nmap::Scanner::Scanner.
* Allows for passing of nmap options directly to the scan() method of
Nmap::Scanner::Scanner instead of using Nmap::Scanner::Scanner option
setters.
Example:
$scanner->scan('-sS -sV')
instead of
$scanner->syn_scan();
$scanner->version_scan();
* Updated to comply with XML output from version 3.80 of nmap.
Source Forge:
* http://nmap-scanner.sf.net/
CPAN:

Feedback, comments, criticism welcome as always.
Thank you,
Max
