When approved by ftp-master, it will make its way to its final home at: https://packages.debian.org/src:rumpkernel I did start reading from the top, and I noticed the license for dhcp_main.c didn't make any sense. And it's actually wrong. Please can you ellaborate? I just rechecked and can't see what you mean. You can easily see yourself why it's wrong (years don't match the source file). It didn't make sense (to me) because I know I wasn't working on that in 2005. Ok I fixed dhcp_main.c (pending for next upload), just let me know if you're concerned about any other entry (with around ~2500 entries in that file, please bear with me as it's a huge PITA to maintain such a beast). -- Robert Millan

It means it may soon be included in the Debian distribution, which (I hope) will lead to some of Debian packages using it (the Hurd looks like a likely candidate).

How difficult would it be to come up with a script which generated that license summary e.g. as a wiki page?

Tangentially, I'm thinking there should be a separate rumpuser-posix repository. Lumping that functionality together with buildrump.sh is a historic mistake, and furthermore one which I've just about had enough of right around now (finally!).
