Good one. 

I agree with Mike that the flat model format bFLT and its tools need a
better public face.  Including insight/documentation of the format and
its tools.  I also see that other orphaned bits like cramfs are also
in the same boat as well.

I will set up bflt.uclinux.org and elf2flt.uclinux.org and have them
redirected to
a page such as www.uclinux.org/bFLT  as well as add  the link to the
side bar.

I have already dropped him an email requesting permissions to move his
excellent piece over to uclinux.org/bFLT.

If anyone wants edit to the wiki - just ask.
