Hi Evan,

Hmm, now that's an interesting dilemma. Couldn't we rename the old
dissector to something like "tpncp_old", "tpncpv1", or "tpncp_legacy"?

That said, it'd probably be a disservice to completely remove a dissector
that folks are probably using to dissect "legacy" TPNCP packets in old
trace files.

Tyson.
