+sysbuild is a script that simplifies the process of building NetBSD
+releases and kernels as an unprivileged user. It should be clear enough
+that it does not add any kind of magic to the NetBSD build system. It
+just automates boring steps, like setup of permissions, directories,
+execution of the build process, etc. It also provides enough
+functionality to automatically update CVS source trees.
+
+sysbuild can be easily used from command line or as a cron job, so
+you can schedule most of the build jobs (really, it has been designed
+to run perfectly from cron).
