But doesn't "The changes should normally be committed to GitHub instance only" mean that the bpf.tcpdump.org repository should be treated as read-only for contributors - presumably including core contributors? _______________________________________________ tcpdump-workers mailing list tcpdump-workers@lists.tcpdump.org https://lists.sandelman.ca/mailman/listinfo/tcpdump-workers
