I already have five people contact me about the SSH decryption project,
it seems to be a quite popular topic. I suppose that people are very
much interested in cryptography-related tasks, so I added another one:
https://wiki.wireshark.org/GSoC2020#WebRTC:_DTLS-SRTP_decryption_and_Opus_playback_support
For anyone considering a project and writing a proposal, try to get a
good understanding of the problem and study its feasibility. To do so,
it might be a good idea to do a little bit of research into the involved
protocols and knowledge, and dig into the Wireshark source code to get
an idea where it would fit in.
A good starting point to get familiar with the project is to build
Wireshark from git master, try to find a bug, and then try to fix it.
During that process, you can potentially learn a lot about the build
environment, the code structure, and working with other developers. Do
not worry if you get stuck, we are here to help.
Feel free to reach out if you have more questions!
