It seems that you and other core team members resent the fact that NetBSD is
sold on CD-ROM.  You repeatedly mention that the BSDisc NetBSD distribution is
incomplete, yet you (a) don't specify what is missing, and you (b) don't give
any information about other CD-ROM-based NetBSD distributions and/or the 
"proper" way of obtaining a complete NetBSD release for CD-ROM distribution.

I am at a loss as to why you take this attitude.   Maybe I'm reading too much
into your postings ...

I think that the Walnut Creek FreeBSD CD-ROM has helped FreeBSD enourmously.
For every NetBSD user, there must be 10 FreeBSDer out there, not for technical
reasons, but just because of accessability of the distribution.

I would like to see something similar for NetBSD, and I hoped the BSDisc could
be "it".  If you think it isn't, please let us mere mortals know why.


Thanks -- Volker
