If you open #Wireshark on its birthday you get an Easter egg.

I showed off the original #Wireshark / Ethereal server today at #FOSDEM. Pretty sure it got more applause than I did.

Thanks to everyone at #FOSDEM who attended today's talk on Stratoshark! It was a lot of fun!

If you're going to be at #FOSDEM this year, we'd love to see you at the #Wireshark stand in building H. We'll have free stickers and t-shirts for sale while supplies last. T-shirt Proceeds go to the Wireshark Foundation.

Thanks, Palo Alto. It's nice to know that something I've been pouring my heart and soul into "generally do not contain content that is useful to the end user."

How badly did the Microsoft Remote Desktop user community hurt that development team such that they thought that making them type “windows app copy paste” into Google was an appropriate level of revenge?
