  • [GERMAN] "We don't do politics, we write software", c't 13/03, p. 106.
    -Interview with Theo about funding, hackathons, and security in OpenBSD. +An interview with Theo - over two pages, he talks about the DARPA funding +story, explains the importance of the hackathons and how the 2003 +hackathon was different from the past ones that had a "mission", +like replacing ipf with pf at the Boston hackathon. Opposed to that, this +year's hackathon didn't hava a mission, but rather around 20 teams working +on different projects and forming new teams later to attack other problems. +He describes a "very complex and intense climate" and points out +that support for AMD Hammer, UltraSPARC III, SMP and Mozilla was done. +Theo also talks about the DARPA funding cut and it's effects - basically +that funding will work like it did before the grant, through +CD, T-Shirt and Poster sales as well as donations. +Asked about Linus Torvald's role in Linux Theo desribes his role in OpenBSD +as a "friendly dictator" who is involved in all major +decisions. +A further topic is, naturally, security. Theo points out that an absolutely +secure system would imply a bugfree system and thus is not possible, and +briefly explains ProPolice and W^X. A small followup article focusses on the +basics of ProPolice and W^X.
