I dearly wish I had more time ATM to play with the power-management
work by Jared and Joerg that hit the trunk recently so that hpcsh has
real suspend.

Re IrDA you mentioned in your original message - I still need to make
scif(4) support more that one port and then I think irda should just
work.

Real suspend would be a killer app. As it is now, I shut down netbsd every time I get on a plane and reboot later to save the battery. IrDA working would be fun, too. I still have one of those old cell phones which can be used as a GPRS modem over IR, but that would really just be the icing on the cake.

I'll be happy if I just manage to upgrade my 3.99.8 system to 4.0 (plus moving it to a much larger CF) without major headaches. Stay tuned.

Mike
