Dan writes "NetBSD's Alistair Crooks says that by his calculations, at the end of February 2003, there were 3525 packages in the NetBSD Packages Collection, up from 3461 the previous month, a rise of 64. The Package of the Month award goes to pkgdepgraph (yet again), nominated by Andrew Brown (yet again)."
