Heres my road map for the rules project.  I'll put a page for this on
the website this week as well.  If something is more important to you,
let me know.

June 2007: Relicensing rules under GPL
July 2007: Release of new rule structure to meet performance limitations
of modsec
August 2007:  Start application rules project
	To create rules that define allowed behavior for applications
	I'll put out a timeline for this one as well.
September 2007: Re-design of antispam approach (again, driven by the
limitations in modsec)
October 2007:  Release of rules for other WAF platforms

In the mean time, I'll be putting out updates to the current rules,
before the performance re-write is done.  Also, how important is 1.9.x
support?  If everyone has moved to 2.x, I can focus on just that
platform, but if 1.9.x support is needed no worries I can keep
supporting it.
