NetBSD 11.0

The release announcement has better details: https://www.netbsd.org/releases/formal-11/NetBSD-11.0.html

As someone reading this fresh, they are almost apologetic for a release with open issues. But presumably the release closes off many more than it creates. I could see any other author/org approaching the messaging very differently!

> CD-ROM media

Wow, I just learned that I can still buy a pack of new CD-RW discs. This is an almost 30 year old format that is still published for!

Long live ATAPI!

Seriously though, why still publish CD formats when a usb-stick is far more ubiquitous and much easier to actually write. Are there systems that can boot CD-ROM interfaces that don't have USB boot capability still?

Just finished upgrading, went easy. Because I am using cgd(4) I find it much easier to use sysupgrade(8) from pkgsrc.

I was running the R/Cs without any issues, so I am sure 11.0 will be very stable.

NetBSD feels like a high quality, ancient relic from the University of California, Berkeley, from the 1970s, made for munks, secret FBI databases and special military operations.

Very nice, wonder what's the state of using NetBSD as a daily driver?
