What is the best way to share samples for my dissector, in the wireshark

review?

A site for your protocol would be good but the sample captures should go on the SampleCaptures page--I think the fuzz-bot only picks up files off of that wiki page for testing.

Another common way of sharing capture files is to open a bug (which can also be used to track the status of your new dissector--e.g., a user who might be interested in your protocol might search the bug database and be happy to find there's a bug that's IN_PROGRESS). If you say "Bug: XYZ" in your commit message then Gerrit will automatically close the bug when your change is merged.
