Several months ago, I ported the Linux xosview application (a graphical
performance meter) to NetBSD-i386.  After communication with the original
author, Mike Romberg, further enhancements have been done, and the
NetBSD port of xosview has been merged in with the C++ source tree. 
xosview 1.4 is currently close to release, which will be xosview's public
debut as a NetBSD application.

  So far, xosview for NetBSD has only been tested on 5 Pentium machines I
have access to.  In addition, I'm the only one who has installed it.  As
such, I'd like some beta testers, preferrably including people from
non-i386 ports, to see how easy it is to install (and how good the
directions are), and make sure that it performs as expected (no major
bugs).  We want the 1.4 release to be as high-quality as possible! 
gcc-2.7.0 is required (or at least recommended -- we blew away 2.5.2(?)
when we bumped up to 2.7.2, so I can't test it with 2.5.2).

  I have a very simple home page for xosview, at
http://lore.ece.utexas.edu/~bgrayson/xosview.html.  A real, permanent kind
of web page is being designed by Mike Romberg, that will also have links
for downloading source code or binaries.

  Volunteers should reply directly to me (no reason to clutter up the
mailing list any worse than necessary!).  I'll send you a uuencoded tgz
file (~50KB in size) as soon as time permits!

  Thanks for your time!  I hope other people agree that xosview is a useful
utility.

  Brian
