Joel from InfoMagic let me know, that they try to keep actual releases on
their CD. The last statement from him, two or three weeks ago (FreeBSD
2.05 was released): We are waiting for some new patches in the next weeks
of netBSD.
Actually, it seems to be, that they are surprised from the FreeBSD 2.1pre,
they want it on their CD and still are waiting for the 2.1final.
I think and hope, the netBSD group have enough for infomagic, too.
I think they are trying to get a good CD, useful to buy with actual and
good versions and more good new stuff.
