Hi,

Should we go ahead and rename the packetBB dissector to MANET?

PacketBB seems to be used in the early days, when RFC 5444 was being developed as draft-ietf-manet-packetbb.
Now it has the title "Generalized Mobile Ad Hoc Network (MANET) Packet/Message Format”.
Not sure if the term packetBB is still in general use, but MANET makes more sense, with packetbb as alias, just like boots / dhcp.

Makes sense to me.
