It's not better here in France...

As I've been using NetBSD on my laptop for nearly 3 years now, I
was thinking of setting up such a page but never had the courage
to do it.

OK, I'm in for it.  The pages should contain experiences about
specific laptops, with technical details for each one.  They
should also contain generic information about running NetBSD on a
laptop.  Information about PC cards would be neat too.

I don't have much time to devote right now but we can always try
to build a basic server.  I was also thinking it would be great
to have a specific netbsd-laptop mailing list on netbsd.org.  Can
it be done?
