You forgot to mention that we should make it flash and provide prefs to set the
bg/fg colors. Oh ... and an audio file that speaks the version in a very
seductive voice. I would pay $$$ to see your reaction to that patch. hehe

Seriously, when I'm not busy developing annoying patches for you to consider,
my job requires me and 7 others in my group to look at captures all day long.
We use about 8 Wireshark and and 2 Ethernet versions, most containing
proprietary dissectors. We've created over 100 mods of which only 10 or so
have been submitted to you guys. We usually run from two to six instances and,
in the public std/dev versions, we constantly have to click Help followed by
About. Mindless mouse clicks numb the brain.
