cctools is not chipw; cctools and chipw are both level editors for the
same game, but are different software.

cctools was initially released in 2003 (see
http://replay.waybackmachine.org/20031023153231/http://www.freewebs.com/cctools/news.htm),
so it also has an 8-year history :)

That aside, I didn't file a WNPP bug for cctools (that I could recall or
find), and am not currently working on packaging for the same. I don't
have a problem with you taking the source name "cctools", I could use
something like "cctools-editor" for the source package name if needed.
