In fact, I can find very little aside from the initial import. I also noticed there was no mention in the last Monthly Report. Did any of the stuff in the September report actually happen? The Yahoo! group seems pretty quiet. All of the stuff is there in HEAD, but is there a tag for this work? If not, I really think one would be needed. Or is there some work in p4 going on with this? (I'm just asking, I don't want to start another flame war about p4 and revision control.) Do people have work on this in local trees that they have not committed? I spent some time in the fall learning the NetBSD system (unfortunately I'm not running any NetBSD boxes at the moment or this would probably be a _lot_ easier), but have not really done any work. I thought some people were working on it, but not in the tree. I did not want to duplicate or conflict with work already done elsewhere. Is this project dead? Just lost momentum? Anyone still have interest in it? Is there anyone who really thinks we'll have switched to this by 5.0-RELEASE? -- Crist J.
