AUTHOR
       kmod  project was started by Lucas De Marchi as a drop-in replacement to module-init-tools that was maintained by Jon
       Masters, adding a library (libkmod) and additional features.

       Numerous contributions have come from the linux-modules mailing list  and	 Github.  If
       you have a clone of kmod.git itself, the output of git-shortlog(1) and git-blame(1) can show you the authors for spe‐
       cific parts of the project.

       Lucas De Marchi  is the current maintainer of the project.
