1.29 deraadt 20: This is a partial list of the major machine independent changes
21: (ie. these are the changes people ask about most often). Port
22: specific changes have also been made, and are sometimes mentioned
23: in the pages for the specific <a href=plat.html>ports</a> if you
1.392 deraadt 24: are interested in further port-specific details. Many ports
1.29 deraadt 25: have had architecture-specific enhancements relative to NetBSD,
26: but when they do not they certainly have plenty of platform-independent
1.490 ian 27: changes, starting with those listed below.
