The future of Snort
Despite some common misconceptions, snort is enjoying an active development
cycle (the joys of open source software). Version 1.6 was released on
March 20, 2000 and work is being started on version 1.7. Some of the features
being worked on for 1.7 are:
- address lists
- port lists
- dynamic rules
- stuff I can't remember till I pull it off of the mailing list
- IP:netmask format
- and lots of new plugins
