Regarding 386BSD:

You can send me email at ljolitz@cardio.ucsf.edu. There are newsgroups
(comp.os.386bsd...), but there's little going on right now, as we
are in the quiet period before a major release. A good ftp site for
the older release is wu-archive. 

The official release will be out this summer. 

BTW, we write about 386BSD in Dr. Dobbs Journal (the porting series
itself ran Jan-Nov91 and Feb-July92) -- we have an article on Rock
Ridge extensions coming out soon, and 386BSD updates are available
as part of the Dr. Dobbs Journal "careware" charity program (send
a SASE mailer and an error-free floppy to Dr. Dobbs Journal, 386BSD Careware
program, 411 Borel Avenue, San Mateo, CA. 94402 USA). They will make
a copy of the latest Tiny 386BSD floppy and send it back. There is
no charge for the service, but if you would like to send a dollar or 
more for the kids helped by the Childrens Support League of the East Bay, 
I know they'd be grateful). 

I hope this helps.

Lynne Jolitz.
