IMO, the Samba team has done a rather good job maintaining the pidl source (including the wireshark backend) - we just did a not make very good use of it :-( I also think that the maintainership of the pidl sources including the Wireshark backend is in good hands where is currently is. We "only" need to get back to synching the sources and to some lesser extent the idl files. What we should do is: Determine whether our pidl (tool) sources contain any changes not upstreamed. Create patches against current samba pidl, get it working again and get them upstreamed. Replace our pidl tree with samba's tree (+idl_types.h). Regularly copy over the changes from the samba tree.
And change the Wireshark backend as we deem it proper in the future, and push those changes upstream. Without that last part, I'd vote no. ___________________________________________________________________________ Sent via: Wireshark-dev mailing list <wireshark-dev () wireshark org> Archives: http://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-dev Unsubscribe: https://wireshark.org/mailman/options/wireshark-dev mailto:wireshark-dev-request () wireshark org?subject=unsubscribe
