You should send all new source code files, as well as a context or
unified diff for all changes to existing source code files, to
"ethereal-dev@xxxxxxxxxxxx".
However, in this particular case, you should first look at the
*existing* GTP dissector, to see whether you should replace it (in
which case the source file with the GTP dissector should be called
"packet-gtp.c", to replace the existing one) or just add new stuff to
the existing GTP dissector (in which case you'd just submit a context or
unified diff).
If you're going to do Ethereal development, you should get the latest
Ethereal source - at minimum, you should have Ethereal 0.8.17 source
(which includes the current GTP dissector), and, ideally, you should use
anonymous CVS to get the current source - see
http://www.ethereal.com/development.html#anoncvs
for information on using anonymous CVS for this - or, if you're behind a
firewall that prevents anonymous CVS from working, download nightly
snapshots of the source:
