1080: successful, both for the technology in general, and for OpenBSD in

1082: and to negotiate keys via IKE with everyone capable.

1088: Dec 6 - 11, 1998, Boston, Massachusetts<br>
1.132 louis 1089: More than 10 OpenBSD team members showed up. By far, OpenBSD was the
1090: largest representative group from free software at the conference.
1091: Usenix gave us a table in the vendor area where we sold 2.4 CDROMs,
1092: 2.3 "wire-frame" t-shirts, and the new 2.4 embroidered
1093: "Because security matters..." t-shirts, polos, and sweaters.
1094: An OpenBSD BOF was held one evening, led by Theo de Raadt.
1095: A PalmPilot schedule loader was at the membership booth, powered by OpenBSD.
1096: <br>
1097: The terminal room ran OpenBSD 2.4 on 45 machines. Obviously trust in OpenBSD
1098: had increased since many people,normally wary of security problems of open
1099: terminal rooms, were seen using the machines.
