R6 won't do us squat bit of good as only the x86 stuff would be
in it. It will take a while to port. Meanwhile, anybody who
upgrades to -current now will lose all X support. B^(. X uses
alot of the OS effected by off_t and uid/gid stuff; hell, the
C library alone has gone from 1 to 9 since the last binaries
were cut. B^(.
While I think R6 will be C0OL, we need new binaries to hold us
until Amiga versions of R6 server's can be done.
