1074: Dec 6 - 11, 1998, Boston, Massachusetts<br>
1.132 louis 1075: More than 10 OpenBSD team members showed up. By far, OpenBSD was the
1076: largest representative group from free software at the conference.
1077: Usenix gave us a table in the vendor area where we sold 2.4 CDROMs,
1078: 2.3 "wire-frame" t-shirts, and the new 2.4 embroidered
1079: "Because security matters..." t-shirts, polos, and sweaters.
1080: An OpenBSD BOF was held one evening, led by Theo de Raadt.
1081: A PalmPilot schedule loader was at the membership booth, powered by OpenBSD.
1082: <br>
1083: The terminal room ran OpenBSD 2.4 on 45 machines. Obviously trust in OpenBSD
1084: had increased since many people,normally wary of security problems of open
1085: terminal rooms, were seen using the machines.

1158: and normal tracks. Theo did a general talk about what the OpenBSD
1159: project offers. Angelos held a panel about IPSEC (which is quite an

1163: The terminal room PCs ran OpenBSD 2.3. We sold many CDROMs. The
