Those tools don't touch the scope of Grml close enough, 25MB is also quite large overall, so I'm afraid they won't reach the Grml release, sorry.
I don't know about the size requirements. Withoug guymager, it would be 225kB, maybe a more acceptable size. Of course something like aimage would be needed for the non-ewf part of the world, but sadly this went out of debian some time ago. Maybe I should learn to package stuff some day and help out on the upstream front...
Ok, I'll discuss the situation for xmount and ewf-tools within the team again. NACK for guymager though.
As there's a forensic boot option and stuff like afflib-tools provided, I don't understand the "don't touch the scope of Grml" part too well.
The forensic boot option is a feature which was contributed back by the commercial Grml-Forensic flavour.
But of course that's my personal view and the reason I started to use in the first place.
Grml focuses on sysadmin needs, we used to include a bunch of tools that where actually outside of our scope but we had to re-focus the project to get our available manpower at the right place.
