Advanced support to libpcap here: "Add support for B.A.T.M.A.N. Advanced #980" -> https://github.com/the-tcpdump-group/libpcap/pull/980 I'm not in a hurry and would need a while to add any change requests anyway, due to other things having priorities right now. But I had also been wondering why it might not be progressing anymore, even though the initial feedback was very swift, constructive and super helpful. Many thanks for that again! I see that there generally is quite some activity in libpcap, so it seems to me like it's a bit of an issue of motivation or priorities on other people's sides as well, maybe? (And I was also wondering if people maybe lost interest after noticing that batman-adv is GPL licensed and a Linux kernel module only so far. Do maintainers/devs on the libpcap/tcpdump project tend to be more motivated to work with and integrate protocols that have a copyfree instead of copyleft license and/or protocols with an IETF RFC?)
