NetBSD 
 Jeff Rizzo has announced the availability of the first release candidate for NetBSD 6.0: "On behalf of NetBSD developers, I'm happy to announce the availability of the first release candidate of NetBSD 6.0. A number of improvements and fixes have been made since NetBSD 6.0_BETA2. Here's a sampling: fixed bugs in iscsid target handling and with large writes to iscsi devices; fixed some amd64 trap-handling issues; lots of fixes and improvements for npf(4); renamed wake(8) to wakeonlan(8); pass 'boothowto' from the bootloader to the kernel on sparc/sparc64; various PUFFS/libperfuse fixes in support of glusterfs on NetBSD; update BIND to 9.9.1-P2...."
