1.132 louis 1394: The router to the outside world was an OpenBSD 2.3 box. It was involved
1395: in a "capture the flag" competition in which an entire room of crackers
1396: attempted to break into it and machines running other operating systems.
1397: The OpenBSD box was not broken into.
1398: <br>
1399: Almost 100 OpenBSD 2.3 CDROMs were sold (we ran out again). The primates

1.132 louis 1401: "wire-frame" OpenBSD t-shirts to the conference and sold almost
1402: 200 of them. The proceeds from the sales were donated to the OpenBSD project.

1.132 louis 1407: Theo de Raadt presented a talk entitled
1408: "Auditing software for security" about the OpenBSD security auditing
1409: team's process and the lessons the team learned. The talk concentrated
1410: on how our process fixes bugs -- not just holes -- since one never knows
1411: when 5 bugs will act together to become a hole.

1.132 louis 1417: At Usenix 1998 there was a strong OpenBSD presence both in the Freenix
1418: and normal tracks. Theo did a general talk about what the OpenBSD
1419: project offers. Angelos held a panel about IPSEC (which is quite an
1420: OpenBSD topic since IPSEC development at that time was so much further
1421: ahead in OpenBSD than anywhere else).
1422: <br>
1423: The terminal room PCs ran OpenBSD 2.3. We sold many CDROMs. The
1424: first style of OpenBSD t-shirt also sold quite well.
