MoonXDR is original MoonBit implementation code, not a translation or vendored copy
of CPython or go-xdr. Upstream source/tests/license texts are not bundled. Protocol
facts were implemented independently; standards prose was not copied. Deterministic
fixtures were newly calculated with Python stdlib `struct`, seed 45065531.
Their regeneration script is original MIT project code. No claim of upstream
endorsement or compatibility beyond the recorded tests is made.
