   I am planning to put 2 NetBSD machines into production as servers
   here. 

   What is the best way to approach this? I have installed 1.0, and it seems to
   be doing okay, but would I be better off moving to -current, or something
   in between?

I ran INN on a production NetBSD-1.0 machine for awhile, with
excellent results.  I would avoid current if you want a stable
production machine.  If you have a personal machine you want the
latest goodies on, though, you might track current with that one.
