   Even as we speak NetBSD is running on and being ported to other
   processors and architectures besides 386/486 PeeCees.  The 0.9 release
   even has kernel arch trees for amiga and hp300 (though I don't know
   how complete they are yet).  I would recommend you get in touch with
   the NetBSD core team.  One address that should reach them would be
   netbsd-current-users@sun-lamp.cs.berkeley.edu.

Umm.. That is really the wrong address to use.  I should've mentioned
the right one in the ports posting I made last week.  Best address for
port-related questions is 'netbsd-ports@sun-lamp.cs.berkeley.edu'.
That mailing list contains most of the port developers.

later,
Adam Glass
