+The linux-decnet project (see http://linux-decnet.sourceforge.net/ )
+is an effort to bring full DECnet support to Linux; however, they
+also separately offer the latd package, a collection of programs
+that speak Digital's old Local Area Terminal (LAT) protocol. These
+programs enable network clients to reach serial devices connected
+to old LAT-only terminal servers, such as the DECserver 200/MC.
+
+This is a redistribution of the linux-decnet project's software,
+with NetBSD compatability added.
