I started a build of pkgsrc-2006Q1 on NetBSD 2.1/i386 and 3.0/i386.
Binary packages should be available in about 10 days.
I wlll also start builds for 2.1/sparc and 3.0/sparc, as soon as the
currently running build of the last pkgsrc-2005Q4 update will be done (should
be tomorow). This will take 3 to 4 weeks to complete.

As I did with the previous branches, once the initial build is done
I will keep updating binary packages when updates are commited to the branch.
