I'm going to take a stab at getting something working with OpenVAS 7 and OMPv5 tonight.

Hi! Sorry about the delay. Currently the lib doesn't support OpenVas 7. We will add support for it, but I'm sorry to say that I don't know when.

If you check out my hacked together branch it should give you some details. I've removed quite a lot of the getters and setters from the underlying report models because I feel they aren't very pythonic and also a lot of the checks these things do that throw away info; I'd rather keep info that we don't understand than just message out that we are throwing it away.

My needs are probably different that the design of the library.

I've also made it so that creating a scan and launching one are separate commands, otherwise I can't see how to retrieve the task id (and therefore results) in the finish callback. All very hacky but it works with OV7.

Oh and OpenVAS 8 is out and uses a totally new protocol for controlling scanning. Ho hum.

The last should be added correctly support for OpenVAS 7 and 8 5a5c5c7

This patch was not tested a lot. Please, check it and tell us.
