Hi

I have developed a dissector for the Modbus/TCP protocol for a company
here in South Africa.  They would like to have the dissector added to the
Ethereal sources.  I have included the two files to be committed;  could
you please let me know whether or not this can be done, and how I should
proceed about doing it if indeed?

Thank you very much
