Why can't you automate the download of the Community or VRT rules?

My automated system was (and still is) based off the CVS repository.

Will the GPL rules be updated there? Or do I have to abandon CVS?
 
Ahh, I see, run with oinkmaster and an oink code. Grab the ruleset
you want that way. There's the Community ruleset too if you want to get
that.

Alternatively a quick bit of Perl using WWW::Mechanize should get you
automated pretty quickly too.
