I've just upgraded from 8.1 to 9 (amd64) and I have some issues which I'd like

I have updated /pub/NetBSD/README on ftp.netbsd.org
I'm not really sure about these things updated every three weeks :-)
Perhaps it should say they are updated t.i.w.
To whoever can fix the CDN readme:
The CDN readme
https://cdn.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/README
is out of date. It says
NetBSD is currently at release version 8.0
and also does not list
