A lot of what we've been doing with FreeBSD is pretty generic -- starting a NetBSD port 'should' just be a case of writing new ebuilds for the NetBSD base system and creating a new profile. Of course, there will most likely be the inevitable complications, but anyone's more then welcome to try it. -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
