dynamically-assigned "ett_" integer values, assigned by
"proto_register_subtree_array()"; this:
obviates the need to update "packet.h" whenever you add a new
subtree type - you only have to add a call to
"proto_register_subtree_array()" to a "register" routine and an
array of pointers to "ett_", if they're not already there, and
add a pointer to the new "ett_" variable to the array, if they
are there;
would allow run-time-loaded dissectors to allocate subtree types
when they're loaded.

bunch of source files.
Replace the "payload" field of a "packet_info" structure with "len" and
"captured_len" fields, which contain the total packet length and total
captured packet length (including all headers) at the current protocol
layer (i.e., if a given layer has a length field, and that length field
says its shorter than the length we got from the capture, reduce the
"pi.len" and "pi.captured_len" values appropriately). Those fields can
be used in the future if we add checks to make sure a field we're
extracting from a packet doesn't go past the end of the packet, or past
the captured part of the packet.
Get rid of the additional payload argument to some dissection functions;
use "pi.captured_len - offset" instead.
Have the END_OF_FRAME macro use "pi.captured_len" rather than
"fd->cap_len", so that "dissect the rest of the frame" becomes "dissect
the rest of the packet", and doesn't dissect end-of-frame padding such
as padding added to make an Ethernet frame 60 or more octets long. (We
might want to rename it END_OF_PACKET; if we ever want to label the
end-of-frame padding for the benefit of people curious what that extra
gunk is, we could have a separate END_OF_FRAME macro that uses
"fd->cap_len".)

mechanism that is built into ethereal. Wiretap is now used to read all
file formats. Libpcap is used only for capturing.
