The NetBSD Project is pleased to announce that NetBSD 1.6.1 has been branched
and the release engineering process has begun. NetBSD 1.6.1 is a maintenance
(or patch) release for users of NetBSD 1.6, not to be confused with
NetBSD-current (which will become the
next major release). As a patch release, it is not branched off the head of
the CVS source tree, but instead includes all security fixes and patches
applied to the 1.6 branch.



A complete list of changes since 1.6 is available in src/doc/CHANGES-1.6.1 of
the branch, which can be checked out by passing the
<code>-rnetbsd-1-6-PATCH001-RC1</code> flag to the cvs command: <code>cvs
-rnetbsd-1-6-PATCH001-RC1 co src</code>.



Details on the release cycle and status information is available from
http://www.netbsd.org/releng/releng-1.6.html.

Largely due to the efforts of Paul Kranenburg, NetBSD
-current now supports
SMP on sparc. It has been tested on a
SPARCstation 20/712, sun4/690 and other systems. See
Matthew Green's
message to the port-sparc mailing list.
