This is now OK with me.
However I would like to have a more precise description somewhere; 
probably either in the Kconfig or, if this is obsolescent, in whatever 
replaces it.
I think that someone grepping the kernel sources for the commercial name 
"CloudBox" should find both versions and be able to decide which one he has.
