Sam,

On the Snort.org home page under the heading "Snort 2.0 release available"
there is a link: http://www.snort.org/dl/snort-2.0.0.tar.gz

Going thru the code "config.h" shows:

#define VERSION
"2.0.0rc5"VERSION_ENABLE_ODBC""VERSION_ENABLE_MYSQL""VERSION_ENABLE_MSSQL""V
ERSION_ENABLE_RESPONSE"-WIN32"VERSION_DEBUG

Going thru the code "snort.h" shows:

#define BUILD "72"

All,

Questions:

1. Why is Snort 1.9.1 not being patched? IMHO this is a big mistake as
some
users are not ready for 2.0.x yet.

I would have to agree with this..  Seems like not patching snort 1.9.1 is
a cheap strongarm tactic to get people to move to 2.0.0


2. Why was there a 2.0.0 Release announcement when in fact there is no
such
release? If you download the 2.0.0 release you get Snort 2.0.0 RC5 b72.

Hmm..  When I do a snort -V I get this:

-*> Snort! <*-
Version 2.0.0 (Build 72)
By Martin Roesch (roesch () sourcefire com, www.snort.org)


Seems like it's the real meal deal to me.  Maybe you got an old tarball?
