NetBSD 4 Status update
The netbsd-4 branche was created some time ago, with the goal to
create the NetBSD 4 release from the code on that branch. The branch was
made shortly after some major changes (gcc4 import, ...), and
the number of improvements that were made on the NetBSD-current
development branch after netbsd-4 was branched amounted to such a
big number that pulling all of the changes to the netbsd-4 branch up was
considered more work than re-branching of the release branch for NetBSD 4.
Geert Hendrickx has sent
a notice of this to the netbsd-announce list
now, with a request for a bit more patience before the re-branching
will happen.
In the mean time, people interested in helping with NetBSD 4
preparations are welcome to get NetBSD-current into shape: test,
send patches, update documentation, and always remember:
``it's ready when it's ready''. ;-)
