After reading this thread for the last 4 days this suggestion makes the
most sense. With this idea there could even be two sets of GPL rules. A
user could enable one or the other, or neither.
My opinion is that of someone new to Snort, still tuning (still learning
to tune!), and rules are something I depend on, not attempt to write
yet. You could though easily equate my situation with a rushed admin.
