Log Message:
Update, after ten years. Importantly, add a "History" section, to explain
what's going on.
We have now become "upstream", and most of the ipsec-tools development is
done in NetBSD's CVS. However, many distributions still take their
tarballs from SourceForge (which is defunct, and not maintained).

+History
+=======
+
+Ipsec-tools was originally developed by the KAME project. It was then moved
+on SourfeForge, at the following address:
-Sources can be found at the IPsec-Tools home page at:
http://ipsec-tools.sourceforge.net/
-And CVS repository is hosted at NetBSD tree:
- cvs [email protected]:/cvsroot co ipsec-tools
+Due to too restricted commit accesses, the development stalled, and the
+source code was moved into NetBSD's CVS repository, in:
+
+ src/crypto/dist/ipsec-tools
+
+However, many distributions still take their tarballs from SourceForge, and
+each distribution maintains local patches.
+
+A Trac used to exist, at the following address:
-Bug reports and project wiki is located at:
https://trac.ipsec-tools.net/
-Please report any problems to the mailing list:
+but the domain expired and was not renewed.
+
+The mailing lists from SourceForge still exist:
