As far as I know there has been no substantial work done on Quasijarus in the time frame you mention. I'm not sure why people gravitate to Quasijarus as opposed to, say, a 1.x release of NetBSD if they want a fairly lightweight BSD experience on a simulated 3900. > Anyway, how backward can Quasijaurus become?
