Pete, Re. > Are both groups now using cvs? & other comparitive questions ... As you'r new to both Net & Free BSD lists, & don't currently run either, allow me to brief you: NetBSD members are on record as preferring to speak for themselves, & not have FreeBSD people do it for them, Some members of NetBSD monitor the FreeBSD lists, Some members of FreeBSD probably monitor the NetBSD lists, To avoid flame wars we try not to summarise the other group's views, actions etc. Please ask them direct whatever you want, (but don't cross post to freebsd, as that would contravene our policy Re cross posts.) If you wish to install NetBSD on your Sparc, & use it as a base, & then start a port of FreeBSD to the Sparc, or if you want to use the native Sun OS as a base, & port FreeBSD to the Sparc, we on freebsd-platforms@FreeBSD.org will be interested to read progress reports. If you work through our tree, (tracking our current src tree as it evolves) & if you can offer nicely presented diff -c lists ready to cvs commit to our master sources, I guess people here will be happy to see someone working on a sparc port, & may likely be prepared to commit stuff :-) But until you grab Free &/or Net BSD sources, this is just futures for now ... All the best, Julian Shelp
