JFTR: I've recently (last week) added a lilo-fork to the numerous other
modified OSS packages I'm dealing with. While that's strictly about
adding features needed by the product of my employer, there are no
plans to publish these (not because of any particular policy, just
because that would require spending time on it already overallocated to
other tasks) and I certainly wouldn't win a "Now, that's a beautiful design!"
prize for the changes (they're functional and that's all I need), it's
not that the code has been left to rot in an abandoned building. I have
no plans to use anything but lilo unless that's a technical
requirement. It boots. That's all I want from it.
