+*** Announcement ***

10 
+The ClamAV project is launching a new service called "Third Party web
11 
+interface". It will allow selected individuals/organizations to publish
12 
+ClamAV Virus Databases (CVD) through the ClamAV mirror network.
13 
+
14 
+If you choose to publish your signatures through our Third Party
15 
+web interface you will benefit from the following:
16 
+
17 
+- before publishing the signatures, we will test them for
18 
+  false positives against our false positive file collection.
19 
+- before publishing the signatures, we'll verify that the latest two major
20 
+  versions of ClamAV can load them correctly.
21 
+- the signatures will be digitally signed and packaged into a single
22 
+  .cvd compressed file.
23 
+- there will be no ".UNOFFICIAL" suffix in the detection names.
24 
+- a custom prefix will be added to the detection names, identifying the
25 
+  organization which published the signature.
26 
+- updates will be distributed both as full CVD files and cdiff
27 
+  incremental updates. Users will benefit from lower network traffic.
28 
+- the .cvd and .cdiff files will be distributed through the
29 
+  ClamAV mirror network.
30 
+- the service should result in faster remediation of false positives.
31 
+- ClamAV users will be able to download the third party databases
32 
+  using freshclam, by adding a single line to freshclam.conf, what
33 
+  should make signature maintenance significantly easier.
34 
+
35 
+The service is still in beta, you are welcome to contact Luca Gibelli
36 
+<luca*clamav.net> if you intend to join the beta program.
37 
+
38 
+We especially welcome those who already distribute their own unofficial
39 
+signatures to join. A list of databases distributed by the new service
40 
+will be available at http://www.clamav.net/download/cvd/3rdparty
41 
+
42 
+We will be happy to answer any questions you might have.
