|Proposal: 	- merge 0.1.5 and NetBSD into "one" NetBSD.

That would be the best !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

o	Let the NetBSD people integrate the latest stuff from the patchkit
	into NetBSD.
o	Then let's work together as supposed by Nate Williams 
	(one of his plans for 386BSD 0.1.5) on upgrading
	every utility to the latest patchlevel.
o	Finally release an unique BSD ==> NetBSD 0.9

Now I'd like to ask the NetBSD's and 386BSD's authorities ...

Would it be possible to merge 386bsd 0.1.5 and NetBSD 0.8
to a single improved NetBSD 0.9 ??????
