Hi,

I'm forwarding this from the tcpdump-workers list since it's of interest
to various folks around here.

> Hi all.
> 
> This mail is to announce the birth of the NTAR project. NTAR stands for
> Network Trace Archival and Retrieval library, and is an implementation of
> the PCAP next generation dump file format, that was proposed and discussed
> last year by several folks on the libpcap/tcpdump and WinPcap mailing lists.
> The library is released under the 3-clause/BSD license.
> 
> The URL of the project is:
> 
> http://www.winpcap.org/ntar
> 
> On this website you can find
> - the source file of the library (both for windows and *nix)
> - the HTML documentation of the API (generated with doxygen from the
>   commented source files), both for the user  and for someone wanting to
>   extend it. The docs contain some tests/examples that you can look to
>   get an idea of how the library works.
> - An updated version of the PCAP draft specifying the file format.
>   The original draft of the file format is available at
>      http://www.tcpdump.org/pcap/pcap.html
> 
> 
> 
> I'm seeking contributors to improve the library in terms of
> - testing the library on different platforms and operating systems
> - reviewing the API
> - implementing new extensions to the library.
> 
> A mailing list, ntar-workers at winpcap.org, has been created for NTAR-related
> discussions. People interested in this project are welcome to join it, the
> mailman web interface to subscribe is available at

> Have a nice day
