When will we ever see binary updates for OpenBSD? Taking a system

Binary updating - try it, you'll like it!
you *can* do this - use snapshots. i just did one today -
check openbsd.org/ for any upgrade information
- download bsd.rd, reboot on that & follow (u)pgrade instructions
- it uses ftp to retrieve the rest of the sets you need
- use pkg_add -uiv to upgrade any packages for the final finishing touches
looks like a binary upgrade to me. or are you expecting something else?
