Finally after many years of hard work ethereal, meanwhile renamed to wireshark, has finally hit version 1.0.0. There is now even an experimental OS X implementation. Mac OS X users could already use wireshark using the MacPorts BSD ports collection but a native tool is always much nicer. No this is not an April fools joke since it was published on the 31th of march. You can read the release notes or download the new software.

Many thanks and congratulations to the development team members of ethereal & wireshark for this great piece of software. Kudos.
