This package was put together by Martin Schulze <joey@infodrom.north.de>, from
sources obtained from:
  sunsite.unc.edu:/pub/Linux/system/filesystems/dosfs/mkdosfs-ygg-0.3b.lsm
  sunsite.unc.edu:/pub/Linux/system/filesystems/dosfs/mkdosfs-ygg-0.3b.tar.gz
  sunsite.unc.edu:/pub/Linux/system/filesystems/dosfs/dosfsck.1.tar.z

Mkdosfs is copyrighted by Dave Hudson <dave@humbug.demon.co.uk>, and was later
maintained and improved by H. Peter Anvin <hpa@yggdrasil.com>. Dave has put the
whole package under the GPL.

Dosfsck is copyrighted by Werner Almesberger <werner.almesberger@lrc.di.epfl.ch>
and Roman Hodek. We both together put the package under the GPL.

The FAT32, LFN, and Atari format additions are copyrighted by Roman Hodek
<Roman.Hodek@informatik.uni-erlangen.de> and are under the GPL, too.

Both tools (mkdosfs and dosfsck) have been unmaintained since some time, so I
also took them over as upstream maintainer. The merged package is named
dosfstools-2.0, and its home site is now
  ftp.uni-erlangen.de:/pub/Linux/LOCAL/dosfstools
