Snort 2.9.6.2 is EOL!

Just a notification to remind everyone that Snort 2.9.6.2 is now End of Life (EOL).  In accordance with our EOL policy, and reminders we've posted here on the blog, 2.9.6.2 met it's EOL date today.

We released 2.9.6.2 in July of 2014, and I believe that sets the record for the longest supported version of Snort we've ever had with close to 200 rule releases for this version.

2.9.6.2 lived a good life, but now it's time to upgrade our engines, Snort 2.9.8.0 is the current version of Snort, and we should upgrade immediately.

Thanks for all of your support!
