If the refactoring merely cleans up working code, producing code that doesn't appear different to the end user (old code dissects as well as new code, crashes no more than new code, etc.), it's probably not worth backporting it. If the refactoring fixes bugs, or makes it easier to fix existing bugs, that might make it worth backporting. ___________________________________________________________________________ Sent via: Wireshark-dev mailing list <[email protected]> Archives: http://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-dev Unsubscribe: https://wireshark.org/mailman/options/wireshark-dev mailto:[email protected]?subject=unsubscribe
