Hi,
This may belong to port-xen@ or elsewhere, but as it is ran on
-current from today and the behaviour was different than a month or so
ago, I am here.
I used to run DOM0 on xen4.8, the wireless interface worked for the
DOM0, although I could never make the bridge work (it worked with the

I assume this was intended as
This is an automatically generated notice of a NetBSD-current/i386
build failure.
The failure occurred on babylon5.netbsd.org, a NetBSD/amd64 host,
using sources from CVS date 2017.11.18.13.51.56.
An extract from the build.sh output follows:
# compile dm/dm_table.o
Hi,
I thought a bit about this after seeing FreeBSD remove the database.
I do agree there are offensive things, but it would be nice not to
have a daily debate for all of eternity about whether every single quote
is offensive enough to be removed. The FreeBSD method is tempting, but I

the UK (this startled me when I came here some 28 years ago - it was
surrounded by "The Capital" and "The Communist Manifesto"...).
Anyway - in the proposed

I don't know whether quotes are 'admiration', there are more
controversial people like Stalin or Luther and
It has come to my attention that FreeBSD has removed fortunes quoted
from Adolf Hitler a few days ago. I was very surprised that there
actually were such quotes!
