Hi Ben,
Due to the license change, we can consider our version of Mongoose as
"RTEMS Project" maintained for now. I don't know if anyone is
maintaining a fork with an appropriate license.
Moving the struct definitions to the header file is sensible, although
the usual caveat is that users might have namespace conflicts.
