Kjell Wooding (our ipf maintainer), James Phillips from the |

<a href="http://www.deadly.org">OpenBSD Journal</a>, and Theo de Raadt |
|
had a table and were selling OpenBSD CDROMs, tshirts, and posters on |
|
Friday and Saturday. Hordes of people visited our table and we at the |
|
end we were completely sold out of CDROMS and shirts (allowing us to go |

We were completely amazed at the people who stopped by our table, to say |

that they were relying on OpenBSD. |
