1.12 deraadt 98:
1.6 deraadt 99: At Usenix 1998 there was a strong OpenBSD presence both in the Freenix
1.12 deraadt 100: and normal tracks. Theo did a general talk about what the OpenBSD
101: project offers. Angelos held a panel about IPSEC (which is quite an
102: OpenBSD topic since IPSEC development at that time was so much further
103: ahead in OpenBSD than anywhere else).<p>
1.6 deraadt 104:
1.12 deraadt 105: The terminal room PC's ran OpenBSD 2.3. We sold many CDROMs. The
106: first style of OpenBSD t-shirt also sold quite well.

1.2 deraadt 111: Theo de Raadt presented a talk entitled
112: "Auditing software for security" about the OpenBSD security auditing
113: team's process and the lessons the team learned. The talk concentrated
114: on how our process fixes bugs -- not just holes -- since one never knows
115: when 5 bugs will act together to become a hole.

1.6 deraadt 120: The router to the outside world was an OpenBSD 2.3 box. It was involved
121: in a "capture the flag" competition in which an entire room of crackers
122: attempted to break into it and machines running other operating systems.
123: The OpenBSD box was not broken into.<p>
124:
125: Almost 100 CDROMs were sold (we ran out again). The primates at <a
126: href=http://www.monkey.org>monkey.org</a> brought the second style of
127: OpenBSD t-shirt to the conference and sold almost 200 of them. The
128: proceeds from the sales were donated to the OpenBSD project.

! 177: About 15 OpenBSD team members showed up, I would say that by far we were the

! 179: <br>
! 180: Usenix donated us a table in the vendor area where we sold 2.4 CDROMs,

! 182: t-shirts, polos, and sweaters.

! 186: The terminal room ran OpenBSD 2.4 on 45 machines. Obviously people's

! 188: used the Usenix terminal room (due to security problems that have come

! 191: A PalmPilot schedule loader was at the membership booth, powered by OpenBSD.
