Hi Gianfranco,

Thanks for the quick and clear answers.

It looks like diffoscope is the only user of the Python API (its cpio carving 
comparator).
Once binwalk3 is in unstable I'll contact the diffoscope maintainers with a 
wishlist bug
and leave them time to adapt. FYI, binwalk3 3.1.0 can already report cpio 
offsets and sizes
as JSON, and upstream master has since added a --carve option, not yet in a 
release.

The bootstrap is done; crc32-v2 0.2.0, crc32-codegen 0.1.0 and entropy
0.4.3 are now in unstable, so binwalk 3.1.0 needs no other new crates.
If you don't mind, shall I add you to the uploaders of rust-binwalk?

Best regards,
