Hi All,

João shared his opinion about the project's commitment to maintain
stable shared library ABI within stable branches:
https://gitlab.com/wireshark/wireshark/-/issues/17822

I believe the current practice is reasonable and beneficial enough for
many parties to warrant the work, but I could be wrong.


I agree the current practice is reasonable and beneficial, and it is currently documented in README.Developer[1], chapter 7.3, to the best of my understanding and ability.

Do you have changes you'd like to propose? I'll gladly go over those.

What I won't do, however, is maintain your package for you.
