It has been years since I last talked to Ziv. I remember us disagreeing on
the question of the separate website for the OWASP ModSecurity Core Rule Set
project. I do not remember an agreement though. Please enlighten me, if you
do.

On the other hand, I remember Joe Hopp promising us to take care of this
problem last Summer. All in all we have probably written up to a dozen of
messages to several people at Trustwave to

- have modsecurity.org/crs redirect to coreruleset.org
- have the link in the subtitle of 
  https://github.com/SpiderLabs/owasp-modsecurity-crs
  point to coreruleset.org instead of modsecurity.org/crs

but without luck so far and most of the time without getting a response.

It feels like Trustwave wants to punish the OWASP ModSecurity
Core Rule Set project for taking the decision to create its own website.
I do not know if this is the case, but I do not really see any reason
why Trustwave would insist to keep people in the dark about the
latest information about our project.

We are running a blog on coreruleset.org. However, the people landing on
modsecurity.org/crs won't see that blog ever. To name but one shortcoming.

Cheers,

Christian on behalf of the OWASP ModSecurity Core Rule Set project
