Consider moving to lightningnetwork/btcd

[aviau]

Hello!

Would you consider moving this repository to lightningnetwork/lnd and advertise it as an officially maintained fork?

This would probably attract a portion of the btcsuite/btcd community.

If you are a member of the lightningnetwork github page, you should be able to transfer the repository and GitHub will automatically setup a redirect. This means that go get github.com/Roasbeef/btcd will still work as long as you don't re-create a Roasbeef/btcd repository. Then you can start modifying the import paths, but there will be no rush to do so.

Example of a repository that was renamed and is still go-get-able at the old address:

• github.com/aviau/go-get-rename-test

This is temporary. It'll be abandoned once we finalize neutrino.

But neutrino depends on btcd too.

Does that mean that nor neutrino nor lnd will depend on btcd?

The fact that lnd does not need a running instance of btcd is one thing, but it still usses btcd as a library.

If this differs only in having segwit, btcd needs that too - so maybe make a segwit pull request on btcd?
