   1)  How many patchkits are currently available for 386bsd?

0.2.1 is the latest.  0.2.2 is coming soon.

   2)  Is there any kind of centralized coordination for patches,
	   patchkits, kernel changes, etc?

Yes, please mail me with your patches.  Thanks!

   3)  Is an line printer driver included in any of the patchkits?
	   And if not, why not?

Lack of clarity on what's required and which of the different versions is
"best".  Someone needs to own this.  Volunteers?

   4)  Does a 386bsd FAQ exist which answers these types of questions?

Umm..  Cough.  Hey!  Jesus, look!  That 747 is landing on the freeway!

I do not speak for Lotus as that's not in my job description.
