Hi all,
 
I am unsure if screenshots from Wireshark for a commercial publication requires special permission (license) or not.
 
However, I have had serious difficulties in finding contact information for anyone from Wireshark Foundation with 
whom to talk about this. If someone here could point me to the right contact, I would be very thankful.

Well, the president of the Wireshark Foundation appears to be Jerry M. Kennelly:

        http://www.corporationwiki.com/California/Davis/wireshark-foundation-inc/44893298.aspx

and he is (drumroll, please...):

        http://ir.riverbed.com/phoenix.zhtml?c=198235&p=irol-govBio&ID=154071

the chairman and CEO of Riverbed Technology.

However, the person you probably want to speak with is the director of open-source projects at Riverbed, who is some 
guy named Gerald Combs; he's had some involvement with Wireshark. :-)

(Gerald has probably either answered you already or will do so, but I suspect the answer is that screenshots don't 
require special permission.  I'll let Gerald give the official answer, though.)
