Hi List!

I remember that this was discussed before, but can't find the thread.

As the dissector files moved to the epan/dissectors dir, the prefix packet- doesn't make real sense any longer.

The prefix makes it inconvenient to find specific files e.g. in Explorer.

Is there a reason not to rename them?

Regards, ULFL
