Writing SCAP isn't the only way to contribute :)
If you can create guidance (just text) for a tool, people here can help
convert to XCCDF. On the OVAL side, if you can help us understand what
regex/files/system attributes need to be examined for a pass/fail,
that's a huge jumping off point too.

Skimming the code, likely a bug. Do you mind opening a ticket? The OVAL
code checks to see if aide is installed:
