Hi,
now that the reintegration of the changes to the Amiga-tree back
into the NetBSD-current sources is done on a regular basis (a BIG
thanx to Chris Hopps for that :-) I think, that we should also use
the netbsd-bugs list, so that everybody can get the current-bug
list from gnats@sun-lamp.cs.berkeley.edu (if this address is
still valid). Here is a recent output:

As you can see, there are different groups. Maybe we have to
create a new group for port-amiga, for Amiga-specific bugs, but
the rest should work just fine. IMHO it is very important to keep
track of all the bugs, because sometimes I don't know if a certain
bug is already fixed or if it is still existant.
What do you think about this?

P.S.: While I am at it, I have uploaded new versions of the
projects and the wish-list. Please send any comments, complaints
or whatever to me. Please also report on what projects you are
working to avoid people working on the same project without
knowing from each other. Thanx
