I think tethereal is covered by ethereal already. They are different
ui's and that's it.

I don't think that this makes too much sense: We should just have the release
versions and SVN. Otherwise we end up with way too many versions. And while there
is a difference whether the bug is in svn 112345 or 112347 it doesn't matter
whether a release has been made in between. We need the exact svn version anyway.

No support requests please. That's what either bugzilla or ethereal-users/
ethereal-dev are for.

I think just one field (i.e. severity) is enough. I'd propose
Security
Crash/Hang
Bug
Documentation
Featurerequest

Some :-)

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