*_Ethereal Dissector_*

A plug-in dissector is required for a pair of proprietary protocols; *VDCP* and *VRCP*. The plug-in should permit the selection of either protocol for parsing. Having both protocols active at the same time would be desirable but it is not essential. Ethereal captures files will be provided for test and development purposes. Candidates should contact tstaros@xxxxxxxxxx <mailto:tstaros@xxxxxxxxxx> directly.

Why make the dissector a proprietary plugin when you instead could benefit from this entire development forum and ask that these two protocols based on your already provided protocol description get implemented in coming ethereal distributions?
