It's fine with me if it's okay with Herbert.  However, I reserve the 
right to reverse the decision if the volume goes out of hand.

Peter, i ask you to permit discussion of `dash' in the klibc list.

Pulled reasons are, that bugs and followups are distributed in bug
tracking systems with arbitrary decisions. In the klibc there are also
changes, that can be discussed widely, and opinions with possible
solutions published.

So far i have two problems.

First is proposed change for test(1):
  <http://bugs.debian.org/431320>
  [patch 03/03] dash, test: recognize NULL argument as not a number

Second is `read -t' change in klibc's dash. It was showed, that this
is incompatible change, that can be implemented in scripting.

Herbert, is it OK for you?
(Also i'd like to know if development is shared with original NetBSD
team.)

Thanks.

I think it makes more sense to just create a mailing list for
dash instead.  I'll talk to Dave Miller about it.

Thanks,
