Though trendy, maybe a wiki like site for documentation for
NetBSD may be a good idea? It doesn't use cvs, so may not
be welcomed, yet easier for collaborative effort. More people
seem to supply feedback when a question is asked instead of
the desire to have questions answered on a subject generally.

Think a Q/A type of thing would be cool for at least getting
an outline of what people want to know? *shrug*, I don't think
I have used NetBSD's site documentation for anything, other
than google searching a while back on how to upgrade pkgsrc
packages like portupgrade on FreeBSD.

The Wiki idea has been useful for Ubuntu Linux (ubuntulinux.org)
and the Emacs Wiki (emacswiki.org), not to mention the obvious
wikipedia. There are, of course, bad examples out there too, though
I am a fan of it.

*shrug* What kind of kernel config and such information are 
people looking for? I can write something if I know what people
are looking for. 

hrm, you're right, this does sound like a netbsd docs list thread.
