1072: successful, both for the technology in general, and for OpenBSD in

1074: and to negotiate keys via IKE with everyone capable.

1.132 louis 1081: More than 10 OpenBSD team members showed up. By far, OpenBSD was the
1082: largest representative group from free software at the conference.
1083: Usenix gave us a table in the vendor area where we sold 2.4 CDROMs,
1084: 2.3 "wire-frame" t-shirts, and the new 2.4 embroidered
1085: "Because security matters..." t-shirts, polos, and sweaters.
1086: An OpenBSD BOF was held one evening, led by Theo de Raadt.
1087: A PalmPilot schedule loader was at the membership booth, powered by OpenBSD.

1089: The terminal room ran OpenBSD 2.4 on 45 machines. Obviously trust in OpenBSD
1090: had increased since many people,normally wary of security problems of open
