[Ssc-dev] Veracode Call and Server Questions

Hey Barbra,

Thanks for the information, the service is an automated review and works on
a yearly subscription basis.  So we can sign up and start testing even as
development continues.  Actually they recommend building the automated
testing into the commit process.  Funding wise, we need to wrap up with the
ISC grant by the end of May, so if we can get something testable before the
last week of May that would be ideal.  If not, I think we can get away with
just testing the client for the time being.

-Bryan
