The Annual NetBSD Status Report summarizes this meeting and provides an overview of past, present and future of the NetBSD Project, the NetBSD operating system, pkgsrc and the NetBSD Foundation both in general and from the perspective of each group, to give users and people interested in NetBSD insight into the project. Please join our mailing lists for participating in ongoing discussion, and see our web site for more information about the NetBSD project, http://www.NetBSD.org."

    Well, Bluewall Linux uses NetBSD pkgsrc; though I don't understand why anyone would use it when there is the real thing.

    Talk about specific Linux development companies instead.

    Debian might fall into this category, but I wouldn't know about others

    Well the FreeBSD website doesn't appear to have a PowerPC version for the taking. I know it's probably quite possible, but NetBSD runs on PowerPC quite nicely.
