Well, I'm working on the hfs filesystem code.  It is certainly going to be
read-only, but completion is still a couple of weeks off.

I do, however, have patches (against 1.3, I could change this to 1.3.1)
that push the console closer to a standard VGA font and color scheme.  For
those of us with older Mac IIs (on which X is almost unusable due to speed
and/or memory limitations) it is a great improvement, and requires no
userland code (i.e., dt).

If anybody is interested, I'll send these off to the powers that be for
inclusion in NetBSD.
