To me, some of those seem like they'd be fine to have done in NetBSD-current. Why didn't you do things like WSEMUL_MTERM there? Is it mostly because you track an older version of NetBSD? > In short... > > > NetBSD-current the main development branch for things that we know we > > want, and that we are prepared to support for a long time, and that > > mostly work. Which isn't always something that can be determined ahead of time, and especially the "support for a long time" phase I'm not entirely in agreement with. IMO, a little more appetite for removing things that are barely used would not be a bad thing, especially if it's something that's only been present in -current and not in a release. Eric
