Can we please add something like "Better support for OpenBSD" or even "OpenBSD binaries on our site"? I do not use OpenBSD, but I have friends who do and they often complain to me about the difficulty of getting Ethereal working. One had a problem recently with the number of open files required, for example. He said he had to up his quota from 128 (he set it at 512) in order to get Ethereal to start.

 - Improve our packages:
    - Polish the RPM spec file.  (The last time I tried to build the
      SRPM under SUSE, it failed.)
    - Move the Solaris package to GLib/GTK+ 2.x.
    - Add a Mac package.
