Re: Please forgive a blatant plug: I reviewed v10 for the Reg



Hi adr,

Liam provided valuable feedback in both reviews, and if anything we
haven't put enough effort into smoothing out the rough edges Liam
pointed out, like figuring out why command-line editing and PATH
weren't set up right out of the box.  There's always room for
improvement, and our documentation is sometimes hard to follow,
missing parts, or too wordy in places.

This feedback helps us to improve the out-of-the-box experience for
users, fix unnecessarily confusing parts of the experience, and
identify where the documentation is lacking or hard to find.

Gatekeeping NetBSD on the basis of prior expertise is not good for the
community, and not good for the project.  sysinst is supposed to be a
tool to help you, not a test of your patience or knowledge.

We would appreciate it if you toned down your criticism of a new user
and their honest feedback about the experience so we as a community
don't discourage other users and further feedback as we continue to
improve NetBSD.

Thanks,
-Riastradh, NetBSD core team
