Thanks to all these people, that are helping me making tcpick a better tool. Thank you very much :)
has tested tcpick under many *BSD systems, helping me to make tcpick more compatible on other systems. He found also the pcap_next bug and a bug on the inet_ntoa return ointer. Kirash is currently helping me with several patches and increasing the tcpick portability, which is really very important.
Added a patch that allows to process with tcpick a tcpdump output file instead of a live connection, in that way:
% tcpdump -n -s 1600 -w /tmp/foo.tcpdump
% tcpick -r /tmp/foo.tcpdump
helped me to improve the performance of tcpick suggesting me a method of session recognization with hash generated by addresses and ports and a "chained" tracker of structures instead of a block of addresses to structures (i.e. conn_ptr->next_conn).
added support for DLT_PPP_ETHER datalink type (including pppoe for NetBSD systems).
wrote a nice dprintf function for debugging purposes :)
Spent a lot of time seeking for a bug I couldn't resolve on a free().
bug found at pcap_next, that returns NULL on some systems suggested me to change pcap #include directive, because on trustix (and perhaps other linux systems) libpcap are located in a different place (pcap/pcap.h).
Suggested me to control memory allocated addresses
suggested me to improve the Makefile with variables.
found that AIX doesn't have getopt_long and getopt.h
corrected bug in calling S_calloc with only one argument
Maurizio Lemmo `Tannoiser' does a debian package for every new tcpick version: http://erlug.linux.it/~tann/tcpick/
Paul Drain mantains tcpick as a recompilable source RPM: ftp://cipherfunk.org/pub/packages/redhat/tcpick/
Mantained by Dag Wieers, with a lot of platforms available: http://dag.wieers.com/packages/tcpick/
Lou Afonso has compiled version 0.1.20
nextime has spent time compiling tcpick on an impressing number of unix/gnu platforms helping me understanding tcpick [in]compatibilities

thanks to these people because they spent time testing tcpick on their unix and linux distros sending me the report, that I used to complete `PLATFORMS' file.
Thanks to all people that are using tcpick and are sending me description of problems encountered and to all people here not mentioned that contributed to this software in many ways.
Thanks to sourceforge.net that approved my project, available here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/tcpick/
Thanks to kuht.it, that is currently hosting tcpick packages at this url: http://www.kuht.it/modules/xfmod/project/?tcpick
Thanks to all the mantainers of libpcap (http://www.tcpdump.org), that indirectly contributed to the development of tcpick :)
Thanks to http://www.linuxlinks.com webmasters, that have added tcpick in their directory.
