Hi,
 I have at home an Archimedes 310 without harddisc, 1MByte RAM and
RiscOS 2 and a R160 (? I guess), which is something like the A440 with
RiscIX as second operating system, with a SCSI-harddisc, 8MByte RAM,
RiscOS 3 and RiscIX 1.2(?). I have fitted into both a Arcon-Ecunet part,
but didn't bought the needed external hardware like the clock-source. So
I was not able to connect the two. I have also a SCSI-Zip-Drive, which I
use at the R160.
 I started to look at NetBSD, as it should be ported to many platforms
and I hoped, that it can replace or complement RiscIX, which is also a
child of BSD. And I will like to have one nice operating system an these
two computers and my other two Intel-clones.
 When I saw, that NetBSD/arm32 is now official, I thought about porting
it to the Archimedes. As someone else has started to do this, I would be
happy to help. I would also like to get some help in using the econet
between the two computers :-). Do someone have the missing components to
offer cheaply?

 Greetings
 Andreas Pistoor

 Hi,
you asked some weeks before about the members of the Prist Guild. Now I
have found my Identity-numbers again, so I answer you. Are you of the
Command group of the Prist Guild?
 IC-Name: Erestor
 CHIN: 26201
 Profession: Shaman and Ritualist
 OoC Name: Andreas Pistoor
 PLIN: 262

 I plan to be member of the Guild for some time, now, that I am
accepted. I heard, that there are some ranks in the Guild, where higher
ranks have more duties but also more resources (for example special
spells or abilities). If Erestor is not bussy elsewhere, he will try to
go up in the ranks.
 I plan to attend the Moots and the next Summonings.
 I think, you know that my character (and maybe I myself) has a
reputation as a mysterious person, so you may expect, that I like to do
special things in the Guild, too.
 What may the Guild do? There seems to be a plot with some "Het
Hamertje" about I do not know anything but what is writen on the board.
 First the Guild should do, for what it is in the Vortex: Help the
Oracle in communicating with the deities and other powers and spread the
messages of them.
 Second, there may be other tasks like to sarch for answers about: What
deities are interested in the Vortex with what wishes and targets? What
other powers are acting there complementing or hindering them? What is
the purpose of the Vortex?
 Also, if the powers, which were represented by the Oracle and the
Guild, are diverse, oppose all tries to establish a hegemony of some
believes about others (like the hatred against undead, some groups try
to spread).
 If some believes are underrepresented in the Guild, it may search for
representant of that belief and ask them to send a new member into the
Guild (Are undead in the Guild?).
 If for some person or belief, it is difficult to talk to its deity or
power, the Guild may help in the process.
 If someone dies or needs other help of his or her faith, the Guild may
act in replacement of other (missing) pristly persons of that faith.
 The Guild may advise the Navigators in some matters.
 As a Guild, it may also look at non-members, who have pristly powers,
whether they act in accordance with the fundamental needs of the Vortex
and the Guild.

 This is, how I see the duties of the Guild.
 About current plots: I think the Guild should be very interested in the
freeing(?) of a god by Alianirlian, her own demigodhood(?), how she had
gathered an order of silver roses around her and the like.
 Possible new plots: Opposition between faith with deities and faiths
without in the Guild. Helping to spread a faith of some world into
another world or opposing it. Helping a mostly forgotten deity.
Reanimating an old faith for the better of some population. Transforming
an too old faith to fullfill the needs of the current time.

 Greetings
 Andreas
