NetBSD development

Practically all software on our systems is now installed from the NetBSD packages collection. I’m the registered maintainer for the following packages. This doesn’t mean that I would do all the work for these packages. In fact other developers and users provide many updates and fixes, for which I’m very thankful.

I’ve started commenting on all my “important” pkgsrc commits, so you can read about them.

Note! I’m currently unable to update this list with current versions due to these pages being hosted outside of my home network, away from my development systems. I’m hoping to resume updates in the beginning of June, 2006. Of course, I’m continuing to work on pkgsrc and you can follow my blog for updates, if you’d like.
