This sounds about right. We're roughly on the second wave of hackers,
although Gavin is hopefully on the rebound! :-)

I have an HP 300 (68030 based) available to me. I'm slowly clawing my way
back from router bringup mode here, and then will give it a spin. Really,
the kernel won't take that much time, it's the device driver servers. I'll
beam a note when I get screen and keyboard up, anyway.

Sigh, I also want to finish my KA9Q port, as telnet'ing to a VSTa system
would be very convenient. So much to do, so little time.
