Ah, bullet as metaphor, not as typography?  ;-)

I don't know about you, but I think the  INSTALL document doesn't need a
can-do hardware list anymore.  What would be *much* better -- and less
resource intensive, after it's in place -- is a separate database of
devices organized by architecture and release.  That would be something we
could produce reports from or perhaps support interactive queries for on
netbsd.org.  

In the meantime, it could be a simple text document included in the
distribution, and/or converted to html etc. along the lines of INSTALL.

OK, I'll work on it.  Thanks for your thoughts, Hubert.
