> Hello list.
>
> Tcpslice master branch contains a number of long overdue improvements,
> please see the "1.3" secton at [1]. In order to progress [2] towards a
> resolution, let me suggest to make release 1.3 anytime soon.
>
> For clarity, it would not be entirely correct to call this release 1.3
> because the current master branch had diverged from the LBL code around
> tcpslice-1.1a3, and it certainly does not have every single change that
> went into LBL 1.2 releases. However, I am not willing to make the audit
> right now, so if there are no other volunteers immediately, let me
> suggest to acknowledge the fact as an open issue to be left for later.
>
> Another thing is the current mix of BSD licences. I guess it is not a
> requirement to make everything uniform before the release, but if you
> know better please tell.

> Tcpslice currently compiles with no warnings if the extra libraries are
> not available. However, with libnids and libosip2 (ooh323c is not
> packaged for my Linux distribution, so I have not looked yet) it still
> yields a number of warnings. This certainly can be resolved later, but
> if anybody feels like improving it right now, please do.
>
> If nobody gives valid grounds to stop within 24 hours, tcpslice 1.3 by
> The Tcpdump Group will be out.

> Thank you.
