Speaking of good procedures of updating the base system, isn't it time to import

Yes. sysupdate - Julian Fagir actually did some good work for the last
Google Summer of Code. We should be importing this.
What's wrong with pkgsrc? Why needs the sysutils/sysupgrade package to
be in base? Do you see any risks of sysupgrade becoming stale if it's
not developed inside the base? Or is your proposal based on an estimate
that e.g. "more than 90% of NetBSD users use sysutils/sysupgrade" or
"nearly all NetBSD users who don't use pkgsrc want to use
sysutils/sysupgrade"?
Just plain curious,
