Arvind:

I think the consensus is that the rulesets that come with the current distro are better maintained, and thus more current.

I would stick with those, if I were you...

Max Vision and whitehats.com will - ah - not be with us for a while :-(

Arvind:

Probably an impossible question to really answer.

What do you mean, "better"?

Depending on what version you're using (latest is 1.8.3 on *n(i|u)x, I
believe..) I would think the rules that come with the latest distro are
more current, as I don't know who's maintaining the Vision rules these
days...

What are you trying to accomplish?

In what context are you running snort?

What platform?

etc etc etc...
