Welcome Hyogeol Lee (hglee). Hyogeol Lee will
be working on nm(1) initially.

Welcome S. Sam Arun Raj (samarunraj).

Sam has contributed implementations of size(1) and strings(1).

Welcome Y Giridhar Appaji Nag (yganag).

Giridhar will be handling packaging for Debian.

The ELF toolchain project has moved to SourceForge.Net, from the FreeBSD project's Perforce repository where it was incubated. The goal of the project is to create BSD licensed implementations of essential compilation tools for the ELF object format.

We hope that the move to SF.Net will make it easier for open-source developers associated with many OS projects to participate.

A bit thank you to the people involved in the FreeBSD and SourceForge.Net organizations for having supported this work so far.
