1.132 louis 1384: At Usenix 1998 there was a strong OpenBSD presence both in the Freenix
1385: and normal tracks. Theo did a general talk about what the OpenBSD
1386: project offers. Angelos held a panel about IPSEC (which is quite an
1387: OpenBSD topic since IPSEC development at that time was so much further
1388: ahead in OpenBSD than anywhere else).
1389: <br>
1390: The terminal room PCs ran OpenBSD 2.3. We sold many CDROMs. The
1391: first style of OpenBSD t-shirt also sold quite well.
