56: Because there is quite a user community in the Erlangen-Nuremberg area,
57: cheap or low-budget accomodations for developers and OpenBSD staff should be
58: possible to organize.

1.132 louis 1064: Theo de Raadt presented a talk entitled
1065: "Auditing software for security" about the OpenBSD security auditing
1066: team's process and the lessons the team learned. The talk concentrated
1067: on how our process fixes bugs -- not just holes -- since one never knows
1068: when 5 bugs will act together to become a hole.

1.132 louis 1074: At Usenix 1998 there was a strong OpenBSD presence both in the Freenix
1075: and normal tracks. Theo did a general talk about what the OpenBSD
1076: project offers. Angelos held a panel about IPSEC (which is quite an
1077: OpenBSD topic since IPSEC development at that time was so much further
1078: ahead in OpenBSD than anywhere else).
1079: <br>
1080: The terminal room PCs ran OpenBSD 2.3. We sold many CDROMs. The
1081: first style of OpenBSD t-shirt also sold quite well.
