[Nfd-dev] ndncat/putchunks: ndn-cxx or NFD tools?

Hi,

There is an ongoing tools discussion related to issue #2106:

http://redmine.named-data.net/issues/2106
http://gerrit.named-data.net/#/c/1581/

The existing ndn-cxx/tools ndncat/putchunks3 are being reworked. The final
programs are slated to live under ndn-cxx/examples and the original
ndn-cxx/tools versions will be deleted.

However, there is an open question over whether or not the new programs are
also useful as tools. If they are, then we need to decide whether they
should live under NFD/tools or ndn-cxx/tools. There is also a maintenance
concern over having the same code in both ndn-cxx/examples and in one of
the tools directories.

Questions:
1. Are ndncat/putchunks useful tools? (now with latest version discovery
and in order output)
2. If so, where should they live?
3. What determines whether something is an NFD or ndn-cxx tool?

Thanks,
Steve
