Welcome!  I'm looking forward to working together (starting with an
initial wireshark patch to get the lay of the land, then fleshing out
the plan for the project, then executing on it in earnest).

A question for wireshark developers: are there preferences for what a
high quality dissector looks like?  [1] talks about portability and
robustness but doesn't address other aspects of convention such as how
long functions should be (like [2] does).  Is there a rule of thumb
like "when in doubt, do things the way <such-and-such dissector>
does?"

Excited,
Jonathan
