It's been mentioned before on this list that somebody ought to start a list of
"other tiny linux projects". We've actually got the start of a half-decent
list here, to tell you the truth, if Eric wanted to put a page up on the
busybox website and open comments on it. (Matt Mackall's -tiny tree should
go in there too.)
I don't suppose there's a busybox wiki of some sort?
