GVCP Dissector

Hi,

We are working with the GigE Vision standards committee to develop a wireshark plugin that will dissect the GVCP 
protocol.  At this point we have a plugin that works and we would like to check it into official wireshark 
repositories.  Currently there is an incomplete GVCP dissector that is part of wireshark and we would like to replace 
it.  How would we go about doing this?

Additionally in the future we want to make this dissector easily configurable so that hardware providers could add 
support for dissecting their custom register reads.  To do this we want to make use of XML configuration files and 
hence we would need to make use of an XML parser in this dissector.  One xml parser we have been experimenting with is 
Expat.  What would it take to integrate Expat support into wireshark?

Thanks,

-Mat
