Hi,
why do we need that version-subdirectory under 'plugins' in the installation
directory and don't have the plugins directly in 'plugins'?
Personally, it would simplify my life, not having to change some target
paths in my plugin make scripts every time i move to a new version
(including SVN intermediate versions).
And if someone wanted to have different versions of Ethereal installed,
wouldn't they be in different base directories anyway?
Just wondering.

Lars
