Admin of upgrades is going to need a tool that allows the upgrade of
a NetBSD release to the latest official release with a simple run,
confirm options, and reboot whilst leaveing all the installed tools
intact and if possible using any custom config file for the kernel to
reconfigure/compile at the same time ! With out such a tool or set of
tools upgrading to a new release is goign to take up too much time.
