What do they mean by "rule version"?

I thought that oinkmaster came with a script that produces a sid-msg.map,
is the information they seek not in the generated sid-msg.map?

Oinkmaster is updating the rules daily, and it appears to be successful
as the rules have the current time stamp and information within the
rules themselves. Some auditors want a printout of the rule version. I
can open the rules and take individual snapshots, but is there something
I can do that will provide the versions of all rules at once?


Tell um it's version 2.9.1.1-10132011....sounds good and is accurate :)
