Some of you will note my thread at http://seq.sourceforge.net/forums/sh...&threadid=3322 . I started this thread after ops in #showeq told me that I should come here to ask questions about structs/decoding/opcodes/etc...Not to rain on your idea, but I think people that really understand and like to brainstorm on ideas about disassembling the protocol, are going to use IRC and PM.
Personally, I find the IRC channel much more hostile to questions than the forum. Usually the people there assume if you're asking questions about ANYTHING, then you're somehow wanting to find an ETA on a working version or some weirdness like that.
I have to say though, that after casey told me to post here, he did respond with a great message.. and I REALLY appreciate that, so this is not a flame at all! Just a short message to tell you guys that #showeq is not where development discussion takes place as far as I've ever seen. Maybe there could be a specific time of the week where devs come online and help us learn or answer questions, etc... Or, maybe there could be another channel that is ONLY dev discussion...I dunno.
NOW, in regards to the packet sniffing for structs/opcodes/etc... Someone has got to explain how the encryption works, or else none of us are going to be able to help on that ..hehehe
