Alright, that's simpler.  But reinstalling with all of the sets (if he has
the space) eliminates the worry that he omitted something else he may
later want.

Thanks, but unless this happened in the past couple of days, I think that
you have in mind Michael(?) Rauch.  I don't see a lot of Rauchs around,
but that was a seperate person, honest.  As much as I like NetBSD, I can't
honestly say that I've done anything that requires or merits developer
status.

Anyway, it's a good disclaimer, and a buffer against overconfidence.
