I have checked the Wireshark Roadmap and there is info about Wireshark next minor release 4.0.6 at the moment.

  1. I see some interesting fixes in master repository landed in last few weeks about DRDA protocol. I am just curious when Wireshark next major release is released? The code that is for example today in master branch (but no in any other like 4.0 branch).

  2. Is there some general roadmap about Wireshark next major version releases? Like ones per year every e.g. December or something.

  3. This is not related to roadmap... I don't really know what is architecture of Wireshark. If there is some fix in some protocol e.g. DRDA and fix is visible in Wireshark GUI, is the same fix also applicable to tshark? Do Wireshark GUI and tshark use the same dissection libraries? I often use display filters in tshark to save output to CSV format and tshark has the same problems in DRDA protocol that are in Wireshark GUI.

The following frontends are currently maintained by the Wireshark development team:
