NetBSD 9.3 and whimsy

Software

This was my favourite addition to the release notes:

luna68k - make kernel messages green to match other ports and show off color support.

NetBSD is a professional operating system, but I also love a bit of whimsy. Same goes for OpenBSD’s songs and art for each release.

NetBSD have also long had an RSS feed available for their release announcements. I tend to read mailing lists for this sort of information, but I welcome anything to make these more accessible.
