[ANNOUNCE] regional-jp: New reginal list for English-speaking NetBSD users in Japan

A new regional list, regional-jp <at> netbsd.org, has been created.  This
list is oriented toward English-speaking NetBSD users in Japan, and so
the preferred language is English.

The list will focus on:

	1. Technical and social gatherings in Japan that are accessable
	to English-speaking NetBSD users.

	2. Questions and help with using NetBSD in a Japanese
	environment.

	3. General discussion of NetBSD use in Japan.

NOTE: you can't use Japanese (multibyte) characters on the list since
the list manager is configured so that those mails are filtered as
spam.  Use Romaji (e.g., "nihongo", "Tokyo", "kaihatsu", etc.) instead.

Enjoy!

Masao

Donations for the new CVS server

Hello,

As you may already know, the NetBSD Project has decided to upgrade
its aging CVS server machine in order to provide better service.

We have already purchased a new server that has a 2.4GHz xeon,
hardware raid, dual gigabit ethernet, 5 x 36GB drives, a PC-Weasel,
and 4GB of ram. It cost the project approximately $6K, so we are
soliciting donations to pay for it.

You can submit donations via http://www.paypal.com to paypal <at> netbsd.org,
or contact finance-exec <at> netbsd.org for an address to send a check to.

We thank you in advance for your support,

christos
