Re: [Buildroot] CVE-2022-30550 version range fix

[Thomas Petazzoni via buildroot <buildroot@buildroot.org>]

Hello Benjamin,

Thanks for the feedback, much appreciated, and thanks for taking into
account the feedback. At the end of your e-mail, you said "For CPE
related inquiries we request that you send them to
cpe_dictionary@nist.gov", does that mean that some of my requests
should have been sent to cpe_dictionary@nist.gov instead, and if so
which ones?

Perhaps you are referring to my request:

	Subject: Numerous issues in CVEs for the "sox" project

 ?

Could you clarify, so that I can make sure I send my requests to the
right contact?

Thanks a lot this effort on maintaining the NVD!

Best regards,

Thomas
