I think it's impossible to disagree with that.  I think it would be
great if someone wanted to devote themselves or a part of their time
(and a lot of their disk space ;-) to making regular snapshots.  I
will be happy to host current snapshots on ftp.macbsd.com, and I don't
think Scott would complain about having them up on ftp.netbsd.org,
either.  I think Colin would be happy for someone else to keep track
of currently-working machines, too...  ;-)

That's 'cause if you have a centris, it's using neither the ncrscsi, nor
the sbc driver.  It's using the esp driver.  ;-)

Would you be willing to talk to the FAQ-o-matic maintainer to see what
it might take to set it up?  I'd be willing to host a FAQ-o-matic on
puma (*.macbsd.com ;-) if it's not too resource-intensive (puma's still
a IIcx).
