Hello. I'm pretty sure that's what I just did. -L0rd C.

So C is cool but the poll seems flawed ... how can I vote for a hybrid but not support whoring myself out to Google? (Yes, I know Sourcefire already uses Google for their email but that doesn't make it right.) Thanks. L0rd C.

Where you post to the forum with your mail client, or if someone answers online in the forum, the answer is emailed to you. It's better just have the whole information in one place, and that could reduce duplicate themes and solutions.. also there is google code, a repository where you can upload any helpful code.

Many of us in the Snort community like the mailing lists, however, there is another portion of the Snort community that don't. Those people are using the forums at http://forums.snort.org. Since we started the forums, there has been a sharp decline in the amount of posts to the mailing lists (what I consider to be the knowledge base of Snort). As evidenced by the numbers here: http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?forum_name=snort-users So, in an attempt to unify the community into one place, and stop the fragmentation of the knowledge base, I've thought of a few solutions: A) Kill the forums: This method is basically a nuke of the forums. The problem with this is many people prefer to use the forums as opposed to the mailing list, however, a lot of the people that provide answers and valuable insight into Snort and it's related tools don't rely on the forums. B) Kill the mailing lists: This method, I think, is silly, and shouldn't even be considered. C) Unify the two: This method involves making the forums and the mailing lists one thing. Where you post to the forum with your mail client, or if someone answers online in the forum, the answer is emailed to you. Personally I would like to go to C. This gets the entire community in one place (unifying the mailing lists and the forums). I thought about how to do this on our own (custom code, etc) and I also thought about Google Groups. http://groups.google.com/ Google Groups is not only free, cloud hosted, but solves our problems all at once, however, some people may have reservations about Google Groups. So I'd like to use a poll to hear from you. I want to hear your opinions. Please go here and vote: http://www.snort.org/news/2010/12/06/forums-mailing-lists-or-google-groups/ If you have another idea, please email me and let me know!
