Dear all,

I've just subscribed to this mailing list, since I'm going to develop few dissectors for reliable multicast transport protocols (mainly ALC, LCT, NORM and, if I have enough time, FLUTE; all of them have a corresponding RFC).

Where should I begin? I've just read the development web page, so I know I should use subversion to checkout the development trunk. Can I commit my modifications? Or should I send you a patch to this mailing list?

Is there any documentation about how to write a dissector?

This is the first time I contribute to an open source project.
Thanks.

Ciao
Stefano
