As far as I know there isn't really an actual maintainer for the IAX
ethereal plugin. Before my patches to it, ethereal would crash on any
NEW packet that asterisk sends. I tracked down where that bug was and
got rid of it by just commenting that part of the code -- it was out
of date and was no longer important.

I submit my patch to ethereal ~2 weeks ago, and it was checked into
their SVN repository. It hasn't been included in an official release
yet (but AFAIK it will be in ethereal 0.10.11), but you can get
information on downloading the current build (including my patch) from
http://ethereal.com/development.html#anonsvn. Good luck!

I'm almost ready to post the spec, I promise.  : )
