Sorry for the delay in responding to this patch, I've been away for a while.

First up, welcome to Alexandre and thanks for helping out with the WAP
dissectors! I've been drafting up some changes to the wap stuff myself
recently, so the wtls support is extremely welcome.

First a question: has anyone got some traces for wtls conversations? My
understanding was that wtls was a layer above the transport in the wap stack -
in which case the wsp dissector probably isn't the ideal home for it. Having
said that I haven't found a good description of how it gets used by wtp and wsp
yet.

I've only just started skimming through the patched file in cvs, but there
appear to be one or two issues. I've come across at least one change that will
cause the code to crash - and the patch appears to have removed all support
for connection-oriented wsp sessions!!

That's it for now, I'll keep trawling through and provide some more feedback
later.

Cheers,
  Neil
