1068: The OpenBSD box was not broken into.

1070: Almost 100 OpenBSD 2.3 CDROMs were sold (we ran out again). The primates

1.132 louis 1072: "wire-frame" OpenBSD t-shirts to the conference and sold almost
1073: 200 of them. The proceeds from the sales were donated to the OpenBSD project.

1.132 louis 1078: Theo de Raadt presented a talk entitled
1079: "Auditing software for security" about the OpenBSD security auditing
1080: team's process and the lessons the team learned. The talk concentrated
1081: on how our process fixes bugs -- not just holes -- since one never knows
1082: when 5 bugs will act together to become a hole.

1.132 louis 1088: At Usenix 1998 there was a strong OpenBSD presence both in the Freenix
1089: and normal tracks. Theo did a general talk about what the OpenBSD
1090: project offers. Angelos held a panel about IPSEC (which is quite an
1091: OpenBSD topic since IPSEC development at that time was so much further
1092: ahead in OpenBSD than anywhere else).
1093: <br>
1094: The terminal room PCs ran OpenBSD 2.3. We sold many CDROMs. The
1095: first style of OpenBSD t-shirt also sold quite well.
