I'm planning on maintaining Wireshark in the sfw consolidation by 
keeping it up-to-date with the community releases.  I do not currently
plan on removing snoop from ON.  If those who currently maintain
snoop wish to redirect their efforts to making sure that wireshark
protocol support is a proper superset of that in snoop and then EOF
snoop, that's fine w/ me.  Apparently, snoop has been placed in
sustaining mode already.  If no resources are available to do even
that much, leaving snoop alone and declared Obsolete certainly won't
set any precedents; much of our userland code is defacto in the same
state.
