Re: Snort is going down sometimes...

[Martin Roesch <roesch () sourcefire com>]

Beta means "the latest code that Marty has checked into CVS, which may
or may not be 100% stable".  In the case of today, beta means "release
candidate code" which will become the release code if nobody reports any
problems, so if you want to check out today's code there's a pretty good
chance that it's what you'll be running next week.

Maybe I should switch it to snort-1.8.1-rc1 or something...
