I, amoung many other people that I know, Are interested in keeping our snort 
instalations as relivant as possible. 
The most important single activity in this is to keep the signature base up to date. I 
think that the snort.org guys have done a realy wonderful job of releasing signatures 
frequently, But I would like to be able to keep more up to the minute with new 
exploits than they or any other group realy can. 

I run regular searches and often see people posting signatures on this and other lists 
but....   I thought it would be handy to have a single  "repository" of sorts. So with 
this in mind I set up phpBB (Yeah   I know) and am opening it up to everyone while I 
work on a better interface to put our signatures into I figured that this was easy and 
searchable.  

I would ask that yourpost titles be relevant to the signature... such as   

"Microsoft - SSLv3 sig - new"   or  

"Cisco IOS 12.1 buffer overflow attack  production"

This will make it easier down the road, If anyone actualy uses this,  and the 
signature base grows...    I am planning to keep this up no matter how big it gets.   
So I am hoping that People will use it and make suggestions.

Well,   Anyone think this is a workable idea....  I am hoping it will help us all keep 
up to date.
