The first step towards doing so would be to give debcheckroot a correct license. I have been thinking of C-FSL-v0.9->1.0, a license we would have to discuss on debian-legal, first. I would really like to have a universal license that fits all of my projects, first. If there should in deed be a non-refittable problem with it I am ready to retract it in favour of a BSD-like license (however for debcheckroot, only).

Elmar Stellnberger: Here is a wishlist of mine: - put your code in git source code management
That would be a good starting point. Nonetheless I would like to keep the git repository hosted somewhere on my own page (currently: https://www.elstel.org/debcheckroot) as it already is in support of DNSSEC/DANE. Furthermore someone would have to assist me in setting up write access for such a git-repository (up to now I have only been using git offline). Perhaps something to discuss on another debian mailing list.
- create a debcheckroot Debian package
... that was already done some time ago; though the license had hampered approval of the package.
- upload that Debian package to official Debian repository (that would simplify creation of a Live DVD or Live USB with debcheckroot a lot; and get debcheckroot from a safer location; helps with publicity) - doesn't debcheckroot perfectly fit with the Debian reproducible team? They might be interested in to help with packaging and sponsoring upload. Please consider getting in touch with them.
Thx for the reference; I will look for them as soon as the licensing and the issue about a secure git repository would be resolved.
Cheers, Patrick
