Protobuf is a popular wire data format. It appears that the majority of the
issues for this project are related to people trying to compile and use this.
It would be of large benefit to Protobuf and Wireshark users if this dissector
plugin were included in the upstream project. Is there any interest in doing
this and/or has this been discussed before?
I imagine this work would involve:
1) Review license compatibility between this project (Apache License 2.0) and
the upstream Wireshark (GPL 2)
http://www.apache.org/licenses/GPL-compatibility.html
https://www.gnu.org/licenses/license-list.html#apache2
From what I can tell this project would need to be re-licensed before the code
can be contributed to Wireshark.
2) Contribute the code to Wireshark. This may require refactoring and/or misc
tidying of the project according to upstream conventions.

What do you think?
