Hello Kenneth,   

what i meant by this is that the busybox will be updated.
I created a newer busybox "for own use".
Tomorrow, i mailed charles about what i did with a question about 
his opinion on what to include as busyboxlinks and so on. 
And asked him how the people who wanted to update the package 
(task 28011) can get in touch.
I wanted to mail the other 4 assigned  too, but at that moment the 
database at sf was down, so I didn't know who was assigned.
Because I agree with you that packages like root.lrp shouldn't 
circulate, i didn't put it in a "downloadable" place.

It is not my purpose to create a new branch, but I think an update 
off the "whole" image is necessary. A few functions are not 
functioning as they should.
