I started a wiki page at http://wiki.netbsd.org/ports/evbarm/qemu_arm -
just a skeleton, add information as you see fit.  Information on how
developers can edit the wiki is here: http://wiki.netbsd.org/wiki/start/

You could also just post info to this mailing list; at least it will 
make it into the archives, and I will convert it to the wiki at some 
point in the future.

Great, let me know how I can help!
