And as far as NetBSD marketing goes, NetBSD does get its fair share of
recognition on `our' lists, so at least the name is spread under our own
`people' =)

For those of you who are interested, the two guys who helped Don with that
site, Robert and Jim, can be found on Undernet's #FreeBSD where I tend to
reside as well as on EFNet. When I am online I always open a #NetBSD
channel and occasionally someone pops in...
