we put the specification of the XRA header online.

It mentions tcpdump in the page header and Wireshark in the page body; it should probably just talk about pcap and 
pcapng, as the whole point of the pcap and pcapng specifications, and the list of link-layer header type specifications 
for pcap and pcapng, is to allow those file formats, and packets with particular link-layer header types, to be read 
and written by arbitrary software, developed by people who might never have read the libpcap, tcpdump, or Wireshark 
source code.
