Hello everyone,

I just pushed another change regarding #13203 which fixed the snort Community rules download URL.

I regard this as the last change that I have on my list for this update and hope that we caught any known new regressions in the testing period so far. I am now aware of any outstanding issues in this update. Please let me know if I forgot/overlooked something.

I would like to release this update within the next couple of days as it contains so many security issues and then focus on the following update.

Is there anything for Core Update 178 that has not been submitted to the list, yet? Otherwise I would like to close it in the next calendar week and submit it for testing to our community.

All the best,
-Michael
