Are you sure?

Current version of amavis, at least, uses a command-line scanner, and not
data files.

There is a site http://www.openantivirus.org/ , but basically all of the
content there is "we want to create an open source virus scanner",
"spread the word that we want to do so" and a list of commercial
virus scanners availble for linux. They also have a mailing list, which
shows some signs of activities, but I haven't seen anything concrete
there.
