I notice none of the port maintainers have commented ? Is port pmax and port vax being sacrificed in terms of useability to further some goals on the other ports ?
There has been a lot of talk on the list about the goals of netbsd to run the best system the best way and not sticking to traditions.
I don't have opinions on that, i'm a user, BUT from my perspective
useability of the system on pmax has gone down in 1.5.
 How on earth could I convince a manager to take off Ultrix or re-use and idle decstation with NetBSD with an unuseable system?
