Dear Sean,

Well, since Hush was never updated, I don't believe LIL will be either.
Let's please be exact here: Hus has never been updated _in_U-Boot_, but it has seen a lot of changes upstream, which apparently fix all the issues that motivated you to look for a replacement.
I think reducing the amount of ifdefs makes the code substantially easier to maintain. My intention is to just use LIL as a starting point which can be modified as needed to better suit U-Boot.
The other half of this is that LIL is not particularly actively developed. I believe the author sees his work as essentially feature-complete, so I expect no major features which we might like to backport.
This sounds like an advantage, indeed, but then you can also interpret this as betting on a dead horse...
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
