* precompiled binary packages:
- Please contact us for directions on how to provide your precompiled
- binary packages.
- [XXX - need more info here - do we have a incoming-dir for such things
- on ftp.netbsd.org? - hubertf]

+ guarantee that the packages don't contain any trojan horses etc.
+ This is not to piss anyone off but rather to protect our users!
+ You're still free to put up your home-made binary packages and tell
