The NetBSD folks don't allow access to their repository. Last I heard, it was both politically and legally a problem to do that, given that they're tree is (was?) still based on the old 4.4BSD Lite code, which is arguably 'tainted'. They've since converted their releases to use Lite2, but by making their CVS tree public it could cause problems. I can't speak with any authority though, since I lost access to the NetBSD CVS tree around version 0.8, which was before FreeBSD 1.0 was released. :) :) :) Nate
