Great to hear that you're making progress.  Keep us posted!

While the release announcement has not yet been drafted, it's not going
to be fundamentally different from the 1.5.3 announcement[1].  That is,
you can use that as a template to start the translation with the
following subsitutions:

s/1\.5\.3/1\.6\.1/g
s/1\.5/1\.6/g

Then, the list of changes since 1.6 is available in
src/doc/CHANGES-1.6.1 of tagged netbsd-1-6-PATCH001-RC1 in CVS or at
http://cvsweb.netbsd.org/bsdweb.cgi/src/doc/Attic/CHANGES-1.6.1.

You may also want to compare it to the 1.6 release announcement[2].

Once the official announcement is available, I will inform you and other
translators, so that we can get it translated into as many languages as
possible.

Thanks for your volunteering!

Regards,
-Jan
