The following is a condensed list of the CPIO archive etcdist, with some
comments by me. I tried to find out the current version. This is mainly based
on a query to prep.ai.mit.edu and archie. Even if I call the software
"up-to-date", there may be still several bugfixes available which are not
yet applied to the etcdist set. If you find some mistakes, correct this
in a followup. Maintainers of the FAQ have the permission to integrate this posting
there.
