I archive all patches posted to comp.unix.bsd, whether I agree with them
or not. I also archive all posted drivers and subsystem replacements
(things which do not meet the strict definition of "patch", since they
replace an existing subsystem or add functionality).
They're not in a wonderful order, and I would prefer that any distribution
of patches be via the patchkit (which is currently undergoing a hand-off
from Nate to someone else for coordination).
The drivers and subsystem replacements (like Julians SCSI system or the
Norway wd driver) are all available from the common archives:
agate.berkeley.edu
ref.tfs.com
rachel.ibmpcug.co.uk
Or from one of the comp.unix.bsd archives (in article format):
Minnie.cs.adfa.oz.au
src.doc.ic.ac.uk:Usenix/comp.unix.bsd
sunvis.rtpnc.epa.gov:~/pub/386bsd/culled.news
Hope this helps.
