Hi,
Here's "the thing" renamed as "mate" as a plugin.
Hi!
If I understand it correct, this will be some kind of user configurable
high level dissection?
I tried to understand your documentation at
http://wiki.ethereal.com/Thing, but didn't really got the point.
What is the thing (now mate) really doing?
Will it add one/several new protocol fields at runtime, configurable by
a user configuration file?
What is a leg? Is there any "none telephony" term for it?
I really appreciate, that you did some documentation already.
At the first 10 minutes looking at the wiki page, I guess that the
functionality will be useful. But I would think that documentation is
important and should be better understandable.
We might need to put it in a somewhat more user's point of view,
answering the following questions first:
What can I achieve/do with it?
In which cases will it be useful? (Maybe: In which not?)
What are the steps needed to be done to use it?
BTW: Please try to avoid "telephony slang" (e.g. I'm not familiar with
the term "leg").
Regards, ULFL
P.S: You might better not answer the questions to my mail, but update
the wiki page directly :-)
