At this point the newbus project is mostly complete.  However, there
are several ways that you can help.  Go through the tree looking for
code that still uses the legacy isa attachment and convert those
drivers to newbus.  You can also convert the 1/2 converted drivers
that use inb/outb or direct memory access instead of
bus_space_{read,write} to talk to the hardware.
