A userlevel introduction on how to reproduce a common setup would be nice, 
and linking to that from the above-mentioned page would be good. NetBSD's 
documentation is in the htdocs CVS module ("cvs co htdocs"), there are XML 
files that are translated into HTML by running "make", which requires the 
pkgsrc/meta-pkgs/netbsd-www package to be installed for the necessary 
tools.

Timeframe for when this should be done is the NetBSD release that'll have 
this in (i.e. if the branch is merged for NetBSD 5.0, it would be nice to 
have the documentation on the website by then).

If I can help with anything, let me know.
