-Debian GNU/NetBSD
-</h1>
-
-<p>
-Debian GNU/NetBSD (i386) was a port of the Debian Operating System to the
-NetBSD kernel and libc (not to be confused with the other Debian BSD ports
-based on glibc). At the time it was abandoned (around October 2002), it was
-in an early stage of development - however, it was installable from scratch.
-</p>
-
-<p>
-There was also an attempt to start a Debian GNU/NetBSD (alpha) port, which
-could be run from a chroot in a native NetBSD (alpha) system, but was not
-able to boot of its own, and was using most of the native NetBSD libraries.
-A <a
-href="https://lists.debian.org/debian-bsd/2002/debian-bsd-200201/msg00203.html">status
-message</a> was sent to the list.

-<h2>Why Debian GNU/NetBSD?</h2>
-
-<ul>
-<li>NetBSD runs on hardware unsupported by Linux. Porting Debian to
-the NetBSD kernel increases the number of platforms that can run a
-Debian-based operating system.</li>
-
-<li>The Debian GNU/Hurd project demonstrates that Debian is not tied
-to one specific kernel. However, the Hurd kernel was still relatively
-immature - a Debian GNU/NetBSD system would be usable at a production
-level.</li>
-
-<li>Lessons learned from the porting of Debian to NetBSD can be used
-in porting Debian to other kernels (such as those of <a
-href="https://www.freebsd.org/">FreeBSD</a> and <a
-href="https://www.openbsd.org/">OpenBSD</a>).</li>
-
-<li>In contrast to projects like <a href="https://www.finkproject.org/">Fink</a>,
-Debian GNU/NetBSD did not exist in order to provide extra software or a
-Unix-style environment to an existing OS (the *BSD ports trees are already
-comprehensive, and they unarguably provide a Unix-style environment).
-Instead, a user or administrator used to a more traditional Debian system
-would feel comfortable with a Debian GNU/NetBSD system immediately and
-competent in a relatively short period of time.</li>
-
-<li>Not everybody likes the *BSD ports tree or the *BSD userland (this
-is a personal preference thing, rather than any sort of comment on
-quality). Linux distributions have been produced which provide *BSD
-style ports or a *BSD style userland for those who like the BSD user
-environment but also wish to use the Linux kernel - Debian GNU/NetBSD
-is the logical reverse of this, allowing people who like the GNU
-userland or a Linux-style packaging system to use the NetBSD
-kernel.</li>
-
-<li>Because we can.</li>
-</ul>
-
-<h2>
-Resources
-</h2>
-
-<p>
-There is a Debian GNU/*BSD mailing list. Most of the historic discussions
-about this port happened there, which are accessible from the web archives at
-<url "https://lists.debian.org/debian-bsd/" />.
