If you can wait for one or two days, will you wait for me? Well, I'm certainly not opposed to waiting in principle, but when I mentioned it to the WC folks they really made it clear that they were much more interested in doing a complete Japanese FreeBSD CD, not just putting a japanese boot.flp image on the existing one. Wouldn't you yourself rather work on a more complete Japanese release of FreeBSD 2.1.5R, where the user will have all the outside packaging and printed instructions in Japanese? It'd take only a few days for WC's Japanese translators to do the cover text and this would give you time to construct your boot floppy properly - when I suggested that 2.1.5J should follow 2.1.5 by 3 or 4 weeks, I wasn't necessarily insisting that it SHOULD take that long. If we can release it a week after 2.1.5R goes out, that's fine too! Jordan
