41: hard core Linux enthusiasts from all over the world gather for this important
42: event."
43: <br>
44: Although this is a Linux developers' conference, we will be able to run a
45: regular OpenBSD booth there, as known from other events.
46: Because there is quite a user community in the Erlangen-Nuremberg area,
47: cheap or low-budget accomodations for developers and OpenBSD staff should be
48: possible to organize.

1.132 louis 1070: The router to the outside world was an OpenBSD 2.3 box. It was involved
1071: in a "capture the flag" competition in which an entire room of crackers
1072: attempted to break into it and machines running other operating systems.
1073: The OpenBSD box was not broken into.
1074: <br>
1075: Almost 100 OpenBSD 2.3 CDROMs were sold (we ran out again). The primates
1.236 jose 1076: at <a href="http://www.monkey.org">monkey.org</a> brought 2.3
1.132 louis 1077: "wire-frame" OpenBSD t-shirts to the conference and sold almost
1078: 200 of them. The proceeds from the sales were donated to the OpenBSD project.

1.132 louis 1083: Theo de Raadt presented a talk entitled
1084: "Auditing software for security" about the OpenBSD security auditing
1085: team's process and the lessons the team learned. The talk concentrated
1086: on how our process fixes bugs -- not just holes -- since one never knows
1087: when 5 bugs will act together to become a hole.

1.132 louis 1093: At Usenix 1998 there was a strong OpenBSD presence both in the Freenix
1094: and normal tracks. Theo did a general talk about what the OpenBSD
1095: project offers. Angelos held a panel about IPSEC (which is quite an
1096: OpenBSD topic since IPSEC development at that time was so much further
1097: ahead in OpenBSD than anywhere else).
1098: <br>
1099: The terminal room PCs ran OpenBSD 2.3. We sold many CDROMs. The
1100: first style of OpenBSD t-shirt also sold quite well.
