I think the idea of patches for -current is very good for all 

that can't use SUP. It is not necessary to generate these patches
'by hand' from SUP'ed files and their backups - CVS already is able
to provide diffs between ANY releases! 


I would like to see another mailing list (e.g. netbsd-current-patches) where  
the daily or weekly diffs are mailed.
Another possibility would be a mailserver that can mail diffs between
any two NetBSD-current releases -- so one can update from 20.NOV to 2.DEC
with a single set of patches.
This would allow people that can't use SUP to upgrade easily and also should
be cheaper (less network traffic) than SUP.

ciao,
Martin.
