(From update of attachment 5897)
Note: doc/README.developer contains info relevant to most of the items below.

1. As Jaap indicated:
> It's rejected because of its errant indentation style.

- There's a mixture of 2-space, 4-space and tab indentation;

(Note: we prefer that tabs, if they are used,  be 8 spaces).

2. There are lines with trailing whitespace;

3. There's a non ASCII character in the source file.

The character between the "10" and the "3" in the following:

"See Table 10–3"


4. There are patches to a number of files which would appear to have nothing to
do with CM-STATUS:

epan/dissectors/packet-zbee-zcl.h
dtds/dc.dtd
...

Submitting a patch to remove the : character from certain $ID$ statements is
OK; However please do so as a separate patch.

5. I'm a little puzzled by the TLV processing:

I get the impression that the length is the length of the value field; i.e.,
not including the T and the L bytes.
And yet: in two cases only the middle byte of what seems like a 3 byte field is
displayed;

In a third case only the first 3 bytes of what seems like a 5 byte field are
displayed.

In the fourth case only the first n-2 bytes of an n byte field are displayed.

Am I missing something ?

What is contained in the bytes not being displayed ?

6. Also: in the TLV processing nothing is displayed if there is an invalid
type. I suggest using the "expert" mechanism. (See epan/expert.h and search the
epan/dissector source for usage examples). 

7. Has this dissector been fuzz-tested ?
