actually I started working on usbdump, but then I got distracted by
other things that had to be done first. Give some days and try to catch
up on it and review my code.

I really need the usbdump and I also need it to work together with the
Bluetooth hcidump decoders. This is the only way to see what some of the
Windows Bluetooth stacks are really doing on HCI level. You can't do
that with an air sniffer (if you bought one) and I am not a big fan of
the USB snoopy thing.

Regards

Marcel
