NetBSD/vax
NetBSD/vax can run on most popular VAX models. Notable exceptions are the 11/725, the MicroVAX/VAXstation I, and the larger models like the 6000, 7000, and 10000 series.

Integrating Blaz Antonic's LCSPX/SPXg driver
I already did this in Summer 2008, does Jochen know? It works on my 4k90, but I had no time to weed out the last few remaining bugs (like, making it work as console device) or to test it on other machines.
Other issues
- Any other VAX related PRs
- Getting X11 to run on the VAXstation 2000/3100/4000 (SPX, GPX, LCSPX, Mono)
