1090: Dec 6 - 11, 1998, Boston, Massachusetts<br>
1.132 louis 1091: More than 10 OpenBSD team members showed up. By far, OpenBSD was the
1092: largest representative group from free software at the conference.
1093: Usenix gave us a table in the vendor area where we sold 2.4 CDROMs,
1094: 2.3 "wire-frame" t-shirts, and the new 2.4 embroidered
1095: "Because security matters..." t-shirts, polos, and sweaters.
1096: An OpenBSD BOF was held one evening, led by Theo de Raadt.
1097: A PalmPilot schedule loader was at the membership booth, powered by OpenBSD.

1099: The terminal room ran OpenBSD 2.4 on 45 machines. Obviously trust in OpenBSD
