> I'm waiting for final 2.1 release
At the end of October 3.0 will be released, so if you are going to do a brand new install I'd wait for it.

For testing you can test 3_BETA here:
ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD-daily/netbsd-3

I think, I could be wrong, that 2.1 is an evolution of 2.0.

Those many versions are making me some confusion, though.

Oh, come on, it's not that difficult.

netbsd-2 branch -> netbsd-2-0 branch (at 2.0 release)
-> (upcoming) netbsd-2-1 branch (at 2.1 release)

netbsd-3 branch -> (upcoming) netbsd-3-0 branch (at 3.0 release)

I mean, compared to the version scheme of Linux or even FreeBSD...

WTF?
i agree thats its better than the linux naming scheme

but common, freebsd has the best and most logical system, IMHO

it doesnt work that good these days anyway
