Is correct.

$ wget -q https://rules.emergingthreats.net/open/suricata-3.2/emerging.rules.tar.gz
$ wget -q https://rules.emergingthreats.net/open/suricata-1.3/emerging.rules.tar.gz

We use modrewite to make sure that goes to the right place, which is
to the 1.3 branch, which is latest at this time.  When we fork to 3.2
or whatnot, we will make it so that goes to the correct place after
the fork.

Essentially, always use your version in the url, if we fork later, and
your version is included in the fork, you will get the forked rules.

I hope that makes sense.
