I'm in the process of my first "real" NetBSD install, and am still in a 
FreeBSD mindset.  I'm slightly confused about one aspect of pkgsrc: what's 
the actual difference between branches and the current version?  I mean, if 
I install NetBSD 2.0.2, am I expected to track one particular branch (as 
would be the case with OpenBSD), or is it OK to follow CVS head (like in 
FreeBSD)?

Thanks,
