I also opt for OVAL as intermediate format.

well, I am not the author. In general, we learned that
only oval2nasl is not enough. You need a (continously
extended) library that actually do the "tst:" as referenced
in OVAL.
It is important that dsa2oval uses a consistent scheme for
"tst:".

I'll see what I can do about the chances ;-)
