checked in,

can you also do the following two changes/additions

1, change the dissector from being an 'old' style dissector into being
a 'new' style dissector?
(i.e. return int instead of void)

2, can you add a page to the wiki for this protocol?   and so that
when people click on the packet, and select the wiki reference  they
go straight to that page?
