Wireshark-dev: Re: [Wireshark-dev] Can some minor enhancements be moved to the 1.0 trunk ?
      
      
Hi Michael,
These 'Update Protocol Support' changes explicitly list the protocols that have 
been affected by the above given Security Advisories and Bug Fixes. That is all.
Thanx,
Jaap

Hi Jaap,
I understand all about development and time.
I don't see the difference between what I have done and
support for new capture file formats as per 1.0.4 or
all of the 'Updated Protocol Support' changes listed in the
release notes.
Thanks

Hi Michael,
I'm sorry but you need to understand that a stable release is 
a stable release. 
No new features, enhancements or the like go in. Only 
bugfixes are backported from development to the 1.0 branch.
It all comes down to the allocation of the 'spare time' 
resource, something we're chronically short of. We better 
apply that to enhancing the development version, so that at 
SharkFest'09 a new, feature packed, stable release will see 
the light, and the 1.0 branch be 'abandoned'.
Regards,
Jaap

Hi,
I added some enhancements to some protocols and one additional 
dissector (RFC3558 header) thinking they would be included in 
Wireshark 1.0.5/1.0.6.
But now that I have read the development roadmap I see that 
they would 
not appear until 1.2.0.
Could the following be applied to the 1.0 trunk for release 1.0.7 ?
3083 	Enh 	Low 	Wind 	
wireshark-bugs@xxxxxxxxxxxxx 	RESO
FIXE 	RFC3558 header dissection (EVRC in RTP) 
3084 	Enh 	Low 	Wind 	
wireshark-bugs@xxxxxxxxxxxxx 	RESO
FIXE 	Added EVRC-WB mime types to dynamic clock rate list
3100 	Enh 	Low 	Wind 	
wireshark-bugs@xxxxxxxxxxxxx 	RESO
FIXE 	Minor enhancement for for MEID/pESN
3182 	Enh 	Low 	Wind 	
wireshark-bugs@xxxxxxxxxxxxx 	RESO
FIXE 	Added support for Capabilities Information 
message and MEID
3204 	Enh 	Low 	Wind 	
wireshark-bugs@xxxxxxxxxxxxx 	RESO
FIXE 	Brought up to date with version C of the specification
Thanks
