I just subscribed to the list and browsed the last messages and found
this ...

I packed packages for

	security:	sudo-1.5.3	ssh-1.2.21
	lang:		perl-5.00404

We are working on emacs. We got it running. Just at the moment I try
to recompile it from scratch with the correct patches for vax. If this
works IŽll make the package.

I can upload them to ftp.netbsd.org if you like.

Since I am new to netbsd I would like to have a short pointer to howto
upload packages and submit patches.
