   Any substantial tools or tools that don't comply the Apache rules for 3rd 
party code should not come into the NuttX repository at all.  I would recommend 
https://bitbucket.org/nuttx/tools/src/master/  That is where all of the othter 
substantial build tools reside, including GPL licensed tools.
   
   That completely alleviates the inevitable license analyss paralysis that you 
are going to encounter if you are thinking to bring this into nuttx/tools.
   
   The buildroot repository, https://bitbucket.org/nuttx/buildroot/src/master/, 
also integrates with those tools a provides a one stop tool to build nearly all 
of the tools you need to work with NuttX.  Your tools could be integrated their 
too.
   
   Those tools may never come into the Apache library but may eventually be 
moved to https://github.com/nuttx.  Right now, that group is not secured.  We 
would have to tighten up the security a little better and get some management 
controls for the repositories.  But I assume that that move will take place in 
the future when the dust clears a little more.
