So far as I can see, all of the mentions of "dak ls" are actually
correct.

The "description" paragraph mentions that rmadison is a front-end to a
CGI which runs "dak ls"; that's correct.

In the "notes" section, an option which is accepted by "dak ls", but not
by the CGI (and therefore not by rmadison) is highlighted, together with
the fact that the back-end command used to be called "madison", hence
the naming of "rmadison" as "remote madison".

It's correct.  The parts of the dak suite used to have other names; the
part which is now "dak ls" used to be called madison.  I assume that
note exists to explain why the script in devscripts is called
"rmadison".
