For those who have been waiting patiently, there's good news:

SLOTMAN has been updated to -current (well, as of Saturday, 7/18/98).
New kernels and source kits are now available from

	ftp://ftp.whooppee.com/pub/slotman/

For those who may be hearing about SLOTMAN for the first time, this is a
modified NetBSD/Mac68k kernel that can operate many NuBus video cards in
full color!  This is accomplished by emulating the MacOS Slot Manager
within NetBSD, and interfacing the NetBSD video driver with the MacOS
driver that sits on the NuBus card's on-board ROM.

Not all video cards work, and not on every Macintosh model, but there
are many happy and satisfied customers.

As always, please read the README file first, and report any problems or
successes to me!
