In many files there are header comments that contain an Author: statement, supposedly reflecting who originally wrote the code. In a large collaborative project like libvirt, any non-trivial file will have been modified by a large number of different contributors. IOW, the Author: comments are quickly out of date, omitting people who have made significant contribitions. In some places Author: lines have been added despite the person merely being responsible for creating the file by moving existing code out of another file. IOW, the Author: lines give an incorrect record of authorship. With this all in mind, the comments are useless as a means to identify who to talk to about code in a particular file. Contributors will always be better off using 'git log' and 'git blame' if they need to find the author of a particular bit of code. This commit thus deletes all Author: comments from the source and adds a rule to prevent them reappearing. The Copyright headers are similarly misleading and inaccurate, however, we cannot delete these as they have legal meaning, despite being largely inaccurate. In addition only the copyright holder is permitted to change their respective copyright statement. Reviewed-by: Erik Skultety <eskultet@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Daniel P.

About
This is the project of Google Summer of Code 2013 accepted by QEMU.org and libvirt community. The goal of this project is, provide Wireshark dissector for Libvirt RPC protocol. It will provide Libvirt packet overview/detail analysing in Wireshark. Furthermore, it will be able to build(generated) from RPC protocol definition placed in Libvirt source tree to support latest protocol specification.

Installation
Run ./configure with --with-wireshark-dissector option enabled. Then dissector will compiled with libvirt itself.
Add/Remove protocol from dissector's support
Modify variable WS_DISSECTOR_PROTO_FILES in tools/wireshark/src/Makefile.am.
Changing installation directory
You can change installation directory of pluggable shared object(libvirt.so) by specifying --with-ws-plugindir=.
You can install libvirt.so into your local wireshark plugin directory:
./configure --with-wireshark-dissector \
--with-ws-plugindir=$HOME/.wireshark/plugins
