Credit sn0int for registry/marketplace feature about recon-ng

[lanmaster53]

Thanks for reaching out.

I understand your concern. I'd be irritated if someone released software with what appeared to be my code and didn't provide attribution. However, in this case, I can assure you it is a coincidence, if anything.

I don't do OSINT as a part of my business, and haven't done it as a professional for years. I only maintain Recon-ng as a duty to the community, and because I love to write code. I literally have no idea what other tools exist for OSINT because I simply do not do it. So, not to say that it isn't a great tool, but I've never heard of sn0int.

I likely won't go look at the code, but I wouldn't be surprised if there are similarities. There are only so many ways you can integrate external modularity into a command line tool. I'm not sure if you follow me on Twitter, but it would have been mighty bold and dishonest of me to tweet this last week if I knew there was another tool already doing, AND I had copied it.

Once again, I appreciate your concern. I never hold back credit where it is due, but in this case, it simply isn't. I hope you understand.
