	NetBSD *IS* 386bsd, but with the patch-kit applied, an install 
program that 386bsd should have had long ago, and a few other 'major'
improvements that i hear about a lot (although i have no idea what
they are...)

	I was thinking of moving over to it, but if we can get interim
releases of 386bsd, coordinated and the like, I might just stick with it.
I will definitely stick to FAQ work for 386bsd.

	Toodlepip!
	Marc 'em.
