I haven't kept up with it lately, I welcome help to update it :), I do
plan on updating it.  I haven't updated it since NSE started
unfortunately, really want to get it back up to speed with current
nmap.

The LGPL is very loose about inclusion of a project in commercial
applications.  I would like to have credits if you do decide to use
the library :) and i would be very interested in knowing what app it
is used in if you go that route, but the license itself is pretty
liberal.

If you use the library, just make sure your lawyers read and
understand the license.
