I tell ya personally I wouldn't be relying on anything
too heavily when it involves FREE software/services. I
would always expect the worse to happen and be
prepared for it. Snort can drop the product at the
drop of a hat and wouldn't be any worse off for it. I
bet they've been planning for years as to how they're
going to do just that. So far, it looks like a very
slow and gradual move from free software to paid.

I leave the real protections of our networks to
devices and services we pay for.

I thought of all sorts of nasty retorts, but I'll refrain from insulting
you and simply say, you couldn't possibly be more wrong.  And I say this
as someone who knows Marty Roesch as well as his philosophy personally
and uses both the free snort product *and* the commercial RNA product.


I think his thoughts are pretty well expressed in this post.
