   OpenBSD Release Protected Against Buffer Overflow Attacks</a>,
   SANS Newsbytes, April 16, 2003
   </strong></font><br>
   A description of the work done in 3.3 to prevent buffer overflow attacks.
   The editors speak strongly in favor of the team's efforts
   in producing reliable, bug-free software;
   quoting two of them:
   <br/>(Ranum): It's GREAT to see that at least a few people are smart enough
   to try to attack problems like this systemically, rather than keeping
   stuck in the fruitless "penetrate and patch" while loop. This is how
   to make progress in security: fundamental protections.
   <br/>(Shpantzer): Initiatives like this should be taught as case studies
   in computer science courses at the undergraduate level.
