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 1069: The router to the outside world was an OpenBSD 2.3 box. It was involved
1070: in a "capture the flag" competition in which an entire room of crackers
1071: attempted to break into it and machines running other operating systems.
1072: The OpenBSD box was not broken into.
1073: <br>
1074: Almost 100 OpenBSD 2.3 CDROMs were sold (we ran out again). The primates
1.236 jose 1075: at <a href="http://www.monkey.org">monkey.org</a> brought 2.3
1.132 louis 1076: "wire-frame" OpenBSD t-shirts to the conference and sold almost
1077: 200 of them. The proceeds from the sales were donated to the OpenBSD project.

1.132 louis 1082: Theo de Raadt presented a talk entitled
1083: "Auditing software for security" about the OpenBSD security auditing
1084: team's process and the lessons the team learned. The talk concentrated
1085: on how our process fixes bugs -- not just holes -- since one never knows
1086: when 5 bugs will act together to become a hole.

1.132 louis 1092: At Usenix 1998 there was a strong OpenBSD presence both in the Freenix
1093: and normal tracks. Theo did a general talk about what the OpenBSD
1094: project offers. Angelos held a panel about IPSEC (which is quite an
1095: OpenBSD topic since IPSEC development at that time was so much further
1096: ahead in OpenBSD than anywhere else).
1097: <br>
1098: The terminal room PCs ran OpenBSD 2.3. We sold many CDROMs. The
1099: first style of OpenBSD t-shirt also sold quite well.
