Who cares?  You want to pay for my time?  When I work on code, I work
on code I want to work on.  Hell, I'd like to work on SMP, but it ain't
going to happen, no way, not without someone paying my way for me.  And
I'm talking 2-3 years worth of full time work.  Including all the docs
and hardware I will need to make it stable and working.  Hell, include
at least art, miod, niklas, espie, theo, markus, and a several others
in that list of paid working brains.  Trust me, I ain't cheap, and I'm
almost positive that they are even less so.

Personally I couldn't care less if netbsd runs on a palm.
