Just a clarification : I was referring to the list of plugins seen in  
the email than Jan sent to openvas-devel :

<http://lists.wald.intevation.org/pipermail/openvas-devel/2007-May/ 
000315.html>

Whereby some plugins such as the Veritas Netbackup plugins have never  
been released in the GPL feed and whose release post-dates our  
license announcement nearly by a full year.

The current Tenable GPL feed does indeed contains some scripts (C)  
Tenable which are explicitely released under the GPL (such as  
gpl_feed.nasl) - redistributing those is obviously allowed.
