+1 for independence from libpcap. Libpcap team does not approve anything that is not protocol, so anything like events/logs/file format is a problem. I am agree, there is a great lag in communication in libpcap (but sometimes new DLT can be add immediately) DLT_ is for .pcap files, I am do not know how about pcap-ng. What about using UserDLT or Exported/UpperPDU? Or maybe is solution extcap + wiretap (WTAP_ENCAP_ and WTAP_FILE_TYPE_SUBTYPE_)?
