Analysis of "VULDEF" and any possible relation to CSAF work products

This issue (task) is one of many similar formal issues formalizing the TCs process to analyse similar work.
It deals with the analysis of "VULDEF: The VULnerability Data publication and Exchange Format data model" (cf. http://jvnrss.ise.chuo-u.ac.jp/jtg/vuldef/index.en.html ),
which has been named explicitedly as similar work in section (2)(a) "Identification of Similar Work"
of the "OASIS Common Security Advisory Framework (CSAF) Technical Committee Charter" (cf. http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/csaf/charter.php ).

This issue allows us to track and document progress and findings of the CSAF TC of the following:

1. understand and summarize VULDEF
2. ensure synergy potentials are identified
3. discussion of the relation to and reaction on VULDEF
4. documentation of result

Abstract ==
""" (content taken from Overview section)
VULDEF(The VULnerability Data publication and Exchange Format data model)" is
intended to be a format for the security information published by the vendors
or the Computer Security Incident Response Teams (CSIRTs).
Assuming widespread adoption of the VULDEF by the community, an organization
can potentially benefit from the increased automation in the processing of
security advisory data, since the commitment of vulnerability handling to
parse free-form textual document will be reduced.
