1.132 louis 775: Some OpenBSD team members were at this conference selling OpenBSD 2.5 CDs,
776: OpenBSE T-shirts, as well as Blowfish T-shirts, which sold out very quickly
777: at a table donated by the Expo. OpenBSD was the only BSD represented at the
778: vendor exposition, and we had good chance to present a secure alternative
779: to Linux.

809: successful, both for the technology in general, and for OpenBSD in
810: specific. We managed to communicate encrypted with every vendor present,
811: and to negotiate keys via IKE with everyone capable.

1.132 louis 818: More than 10 OpenBSD team members showed up. By far, OpenBSD was the
819: largest representative group from free software at the conference.
820: Usenix gave us a table in the vendor area where we sold 2.4 CDROMs,
821: 2.3 "wire-frame" t-shirts, and the new 2.4 embroidered
822: "Because security matters..." t-shirts, polos, and sweaters.
823: An OpenBSD BOF was held one evening, led by Theo de Raadt.
824: A PalmPilot schedule loader was at the membership booth, powered by OpenBSD.

826: The terminal room ran OpenBSD 2.4 on 45 machines. Obviously trust in OpenBSD
827: had increased since many people,normally wary of security problems of open
828: terminal rooms, were seen using the machines.

1.132 louis 853: An extensive after-action report was sent to advocacy@openbsd.org. While

880: The OpenBSD box was not broken into.
881: <br>
882: Almost 100 OpenBSD 2.3 CDROMs were sold (we ran out again). The primates
883: at <a href=http://www.monkey.org>monkey.org</a> brought 2.3
884: "wire-frame" OpenBSD t-shirts to the conference and sold almost

891: "Auditing software for security" about the OpenBSD security auditing
892: team's process and the lessons the team learned. The talk concentrated

1.132 louis 900: At Usenix 1998 there was a strong OpenBSD presence both in the Freenix
901: and normal tracks. Theo did a general talk about what the OpenBSD
902: project offers. Angelos held a panel about IPSEC (which is quite an
903: OpenBSD topic since IPSEC development at that time was so much further
904: ahead in OpenBSD than anywhere else).
905: <br>
906: The terminal room PCs ran OpenBSD 2.3. We sold many CDROMs. The
907: first style of OpenBSD t-shirt also sold quite well.
