Hi,

When will 0.9.2 be released? I am hitting a wall with regards to the 
plugin interface of 0.9.1 and I don't want to create a patch for 
Ethereal while I am writing a plugin.

The H.323 plugin is progressing, I can now disect H.225 RAS and CS 
using 0.9.1 with a slightly patched packet-q931.c but H.245 is 
hitting the wall, conversation_set_dissector isn't exported.

I have a question about conversation_set_dissector. When a message 
from a conversation is being read, is it automatically dissected 
after TCP/UDP dissection? Or do I need to do something special. The 
documentation isn't very clear on what it does.

The H.323 plugin is going to be 2.41 megabytes large, it has over 
2000 (rough guesstimate) items which can be filtered on. Compiling 
some of the files takes a while ;-)

At the moment I have it only working on Win32, because I don't have 
enough knowledge about automake/autoconf to create the plugin using 
mini_ptlib, becauseat the machine I am using to test on Linux I am 
having trouble with the AM_PATH_GTK/GLIB macro's...
