Hello!

#1 A post on the list cought my attention regarding security of packages
with both server and client. I think that should also apply to this package.
I am waiting for follow ups on that.
#2 I have discussed the licensing issues with Thomas Danckaert, but waiting
for confirmation wether the licence is correct now.
I will try to contact upstream, if they consider relicensing the
contribution under isc.
#3 I am still waiting for assistance regading the category of this package.
My candidtates: networking, ftp (but this is tftp),admin (because isc-dhcp
is there) or maybe something like network-infrastucture. I have seen
dnsmasq in dns, which also provides tftp, but I don't think this package
belongs to dns.
