Agreed.

Agreed.

OK.  I hope the cat stuff I did doesn't conflict with other work being
done.  Is Peter acting as the CVS meister, or as the 4.4 lite 2
Meister (or both)?  Any 4.4lite2 sources I brought in, I'd planned on
doing via:
	cvs import blah/blah/blah CSRG bsd_44_lite_2
to match other tags I've seen in the tree.  Then, if my past
experience is any guide, I'd just have to do a
	cvs update -j bsd_44_lite -j bsd_44_lite_2
after checking out the current source.  However, that won't always
work and many times you have to do that by hand give how much the
sources have changes since 4.4Lite.
