Well, the people who have the rights to the Ethereal name haven't let us
know what they intend to do with the name, but I doubt it. We (the
former Ethereal core developers) have completely abandoned Ethereal and
continue the development under the name of Wireshark, which is getting
back to speed.

We are stuck with technology when what we really want is just stuff that
works. Some say that should read Microsoft instead of technology.
