1389: Dec 6 - 11, 1998, Boston, Massachusetts<br>
1.132 louis 1390: More than 10 OpenBSD team members showed up. By far, OpenBSD was the
1391: largest representative group from free software at the conference.
1392: Usenix gave us a table in the vendor area where we sold 2.4 CDROMs,
1393: 2.3 "wire-frame" t-shirts, and the new 2.4 embroidered
1394: "Because security matters..." t-shirts, polos, and sweaters.
1395: An OpenBSD BOF was held one evening, led by Theo de Raadt.
1396: A PalmPilot schedule loader was at the membership booth, powered by OpenBSD.
1397: <br>
1398: The terminal room ran OpenBSD 2.4 on 45 machines. Obviously trust in OpenBSD
1399: had increased since many people,normally wary of security problems of open
1400: terminal rooms, were seen using the machines.

1.132 louis 1449: The router to the outside world was an OpenBSD 2.3 box. It was involved
1450: in a "capture the flag" competition in which an entire room of crackers
1451: attempted to break into it and machines running other operating systems.
1452: The OpenBSD box was not broken into.
1453: <br>
1454: Almost 100 OpenBSD 2.3 CDROMs were sold (we ran out again). The primates

1463: "Auditing software for security" about the OpenBSD security auditing
1464: team's process and the lessons the team learned. The talk concentrated

1.132 louis 1472: At Usenix 1998 there was a strong OpenBSD presence both in the Freenix
1473: and normal tracks. Theo did a general talk about what the OpenBSD
1474: project offers. Angelos held a panel about IPSEC (which is quite an
1475: OpenBSD topic since IPSEC development at that time was so much further
1476: ahead in OpenBSD than anywhere else).
1477: <br>
1478: The terminal room PCs ran OpenBSD 2.3. We sold many CDROMs. The
