+This is a daemon that is only useful for owners of the Gracilis Packeten
+amateur radio network packet switch product.
+
+This package is maintained for Debian GNU/Linux by Bdale Garbee, N3EUA,
+bdale@gag.com.
+
+The Gracilis Packeten includes a remote configuration command that allows
+loading of configuration files, and/or information files, into the switch
+at boot time. This feature requires a daemon running on some system that
+is reachable over the network from the Packeten. This package provides
+such a daemon, written in Perl.
+
+The original author is John Conner, WD0FHG, conner@empire.com. If John
+hadn't wanted to learn Perl at just the right instant, this daemon would
+probably never have been written! Recent updates have mostly been Bdale's
+handiwork.
