Changes to the NetBSD Packages Collection in January 2003

The package of the month award goes to rdesktop (pkgsrc/net/rdesktop), nominated by Andrew Brown and Ross Harvey. Rdesktop is a "dependency-free" utility to manage a session on a Windows box in an X window. I use it from NetBSD to work on an XP workstation, and it has made my life much easier - one of these packages of which you think "what did I do before I found out about this?".
