Who looks after the rules?

Is there someone to send bug reports to about the rules?

I've just started seeing false alerts on "X11 outgoing", and it's another
case of the rule being too generalised. It's looking for:

alert tcp $EXTERNAL_NET 6000:6005 -> $HOME_NET any (msg:"X11 outgoing";
flags: SA; reference:arachnids,126; classtype:unknown; sid:1227; rev:1;)

when 

alert tcp $EXTERNAL_NET 6000:6005 -> $HOME_NET 1024: (msg:"X11 outgoing";
flags: SA; reference:arachnids,126; classtype:unknown; sid:1227; rev:1;)

would be better.
