Matt Jonkman the project lead hooked up us with Victor Julien who was a key developer in Quickdraw. The main problem we were having was the poor and often incorrect Snort documentation. When we had an experienced ace like Victor who had been through all that and new how the code really worked our progress increased almost 10x. It wasn't just his code, but as a resource for Daniel and others when something just didn't %^$#^ work like the docs said it would. Best of luck to the OISF team.
