Hmm, that's on old task. We probably continued the discussion off-tracker.

For the record, The zebra project was renamed to zebra-constraint, as I could not reach its maintainers.

zebra was dubbed a gnu package in 1999, according to maintainers,v.

This non-GNU project is quite old as well, registered 02/21/2002. Did GNU Zebra already exist at that time?

I'm not sure how to proceed, but I can say that the router zebra is a GNU package (and has been for a long time, although development is, er, slow).  Can we rename the other one?  Thanks.

The Savannah page for project "zebra" describes a program/library for constraint satisfaction, but points to a homepage which describes a program (also called "zebra") which is a network router.  The two projects don't seem to be related.

Also, the home page (for the router program) seems to have been last updated about 12 months before the zebra project (constraint satisfaction) was created.
