     31      1.3      maxv Ipsec-tools was originally developed by the KAME project. It was then moved
     32      1.3      maxv on SourfeForge, at the following address:
     33      1.1      manu 
     34      1.1      manu 	http://ipsec-tools.sourceforge.net/
     35      1.1      manu 
     36      1.3      maxv Due to too restricted commit accesses, the development stalled, and the
     37      1.3      maxv source code was moved into NetBSD's CVS repository, in:
     38      1.3      maxv 
     39      1.3      maxv 	src/crypto/dist/ipsec-tools
     40      1.3      maxv 
     41      1.3      maxv However, many distributions still take their tarballs from SourceForge, and
     42      1.3      maxv each distribution maintains local patches.
     43      1.3      maxv 
     44      1.4      maxv FreeBSD maintains its own libipsec and setkey tools, in:
     45      1.4      maxv 
     46      1.4      maxv 	head/lib/libipsec/
     47      1.4      maxv 	head/sbin/setkey/
     48      1.4      maxv 
     49      1.3      maxv A Trac used to exist, at the following address:
     50      1.2    tteras 
     51      1.2    tteras 	https://trac.ipsec-tools.net/
     52      1.2    tteras 
     53      1.3      maxv but the domain expired and was not renewed.
     54      1.3      maxv 
     55      1.3      maxv The mailing lists from SourceForge still exist:
