Hi all,

I am new to open source projects. I would like to contribute to
wireshark. I have setup my development environment for wireshark on my
machine.

Please suggest me some initial bugs so that I get introduced with the
codebase. Please suggest areas where I can contribute. I will be happy
to be part of wireshark-dev team.

Probably the best place to look for work would be to go through the open bug reports (there are plenty!), find something which interests you and/or is in your area of knowledge, and start working. The WishList[1] and the GSoC[2] lists are other places but those are more project-sized efforts.
