Re: [jgroups-dev] Wireshark plugin for JGroups

No plans at present.

The key problem in taking the plugin further is writing the C code to 
deserialise (the many) JGroups headers which have been serialised in 
Java. There are lots of headers, and they can vary across major 
releases. Bela and I were discussin a means of encoding header formats 
in XML which woul dbe used to auto-generate Java 
servializaers/deserialisers, and this could be used to auto-generate 
derialisers for Wireshark as well, something which would greatly ease 
the problem. However, for the time being, they are generated by hand.

If you have some spare cycles, we would appreciate any help.
