As we approach the 1 year anniversary of pcapr, we were looking back to see how it has evolved. As a company that tests pretty much everything under the sun that has an IP stack, we deal with pcaps for all kinds of protocols. These pcaps were being littered around in public shares, wiki attachments, emails, internal mailing lists and blogs. Turns out we were not the only ones. The broader community and our customers were having similar problems. So it really started out as a way to organize a large collection of pcaps for us and the broader community. Hence the r in pcapr, which stands for repository. But thanks to the community feedback and contribution, pcapr has become a whole lot more than just a repository.
