Hi,=0A=
=0A=
I'm exercising a bit of paranoia trying to find the canonical source for =
=0A=
iputils.=0A=
=0A=
Our internal build system is currently been pointing to skbuff.net[1]. =0A=
This appears to now be out of date there hasn't been a new tarball since =
=0A=
December 2015.=0A=
=0A=
It looks like the tarballs have moved to github[2]. Given the recent =0A=
name/typo squatting efforts on npm/pypi it makes me a little nervous to =0A=
see an iputils organization with a single member and a single =0A=
repository, but then again that's no different to skbuff.net being =0A=
someones personal site.=0A=
=0A=
Debian has it's own mirror[3]. But it does mention the github repo[1] in =
=0A=
debian/copyright. Buildroot[4] seems to point to the github one so that =0A=
gives me some confidence in it's legitimacy.=0A=
=0A=
Finally I managed to find an announcement email on the netdev list[5] =0A=
that suggest the github repo was at least announced.=0A=
=0A=
Is there any true source endorsed by the netdev project?=0A=
=0A=
Thanks,=0A=
