:The problem I'm seeing here is that people don't have an easy way to use =

    Well, if you want to work on the installer side of things we could
    ship a garbage-collected .git repo for the full sources on the DVD and
    the installer could copy it to /usr/src and then do a git checkout of
    the release branch.

    The pkgsrc is harder.  CVS is a horrible way to manage it and I think
    we are already hitting netbsd's anoncvs server more then we should.  We
    need to create a git mirror on our own boxes that we can use to
    distribute pkgsrc updates with.
