I would suggest renaming it to lowpan-tools. I've not used these myself. Based on what I saw on the project web page, 6lowpan seems like a pretty good name: The goal of this project is to create an implementation of 802.15.4 and several protocols which run on top of it (primarily 6LoWPAN) for Linux. But a quick look around in my apt-cache turns up lowpan-tools. Seems like that's what it's also named in Fedora land, so I'm thinking that's probably the right call here, too. -- -Joe MacDonald. :wq
