Certainly. My biggest problem has simply been becoming familiar with
the technique of writing a dissector. Fortunately the very good
and rapidly improving Developer's README appeared just before
I started, otherwise I might have been snookered. Recently, I have
had to go through a similar learning process with the tvbuffs.
The next substantive step is to write the WSP dissector, the WTP one
is working.

What sort of improvements have you made? What does it handle so far? Also,
what
are you currently testing it against?
I am (I think) calling the proto_add* functions with the correct parameters.
It handles WSP over WTP (WAP to port 9201).
I am testing it against WAP on UDP from the UP Sim.

I'd certainly be interested in giving you a hand.
I enclose my working files (6145 bytes), and the patches. I can't
guarantee that this will work because
1. I am not certain that packet-udp knows to call my dissector, and,
2. There will be one or two changes in the header files which I seem
to have omitted from the patches.
If you would care to let me know what happens when you try, I will let
you have the fixes.
Please let me know if this is considered rude
Ben.
