Re: [Ethereal-dev] Major announcement

["John R." <jhoger@xxxxxxxxx>]

Some more FAQs for the Wireshark FAQ:

"1) Why did you fork Ethereal?"
as in, do you have a broad vision for improvements to the core of
ethereal that you couldn't manage otherwise? Was it just to change the
name? etc.

"2) With your obvious people skills, have you considered going into politics?"
No discussion prior to the "move," a backhanded slap to anyone that
doesn't work at CACE as being non-core-developers, etc.

3) What does this mean for the Ethereal project, if anything

Forking a project is a huge political event in any project,
essentially as violent an act as occurs in any FOSS project. One does
not expect it to be done lightly.
