I don't suppose you know:

	1. Who did it?

	2. Where a copy of it is?

	3. Why it wasn't integrated into the release?

	4. What the problems are?

	5. If some of the NetBSD guys would like to help.

Since the previous version didn't make it into the release, I wonder if have 
this be more than a one man show might help increase the odds. If we could get
a few guys working on this I would think the odds greatly improved. I've got
plenty of sparkstations that I can use here at RockyMountain. What have you
been plaining to do?
