Re: [Snort-users] fees and such for IDS consultants

And why not? Are people in this group that narrowly focused on their vis=
ion that knowing what going rates are for a type of service is considered=
taboo or blasphemy? I presume that whatever yo do in life you do it for=
free? I for one am doing a survey on open source tools and how they mig=
ht be enhanced through studies on human computer interaction -- a field i=
n which the open source community has been lacking. I am a great propone=
nt of open source and recommend its use throughout my travels. I am, how=
ever also, a realist and recognize some of its drawbacks. Getting a grip=
on how much money (is that word so dirty to you?) a consultant in the op=
en source field of intrusion detection earns (is that another dirty word =
for you?) can bring into focus some areas in which certain studies of hum=
an computer interaction might benefit.

Or perhaps you're happy to have open source remain the soy bacon of the d=
igital landscape forever?

So, what kind of questions, then, are "wanted" in this forum? Or would y=
ou prefer it to be a "closed society" of techno-nerds without any underst=
anding of how their work relates to commerce? Or is "commerce" a dirty w=
ord for you, too?

'nuff said.
