1068: Conference attendees had the opportunity to test drive the new release,
1069: OpenBSD 2.7, on the 30 workstations in the terminal room. For the first

1.147 jason 1071: and some users even discovered so by themselves.
1.132 louis 1072: Theo also held a BoF on the Wednesday evening, after which the developers
1073: had almost too much singing in foreign languages with the help of helium.
