Hello Michael,

Sorry for the late reply, but gmail decided your mail belonged in my spam
folder for some unfathomable reason.

I must then admit my lack of knowledge on the PCAP-NG format and its
possibilities and support in e.g., open source libraries.
I've added a comment/TODO for this in the issue where we're tracking the
qlog serialization format at
https://github.com/quiclog/internet-drafts/issues/144#issuecomment-844023310
Any initial materials you might provide for this would be most welcome.

The question about what to do with the separate qlog mailing list now that
we're eyeing QUIC wg adoption will be escalated to the ADs. Thanks for
mentioning this.

With best regards,
Robin
