1.132 louis 1407: More than 10 OpenBSD team members showed up. By far, OpenBSD was the
1408: largest representative group from free software at the conference.
1409: Usenix gave us a table in the vendor area where we sold 2.4 CDROMs,

1411: "Because security matters..." t-shirts, polos, and sweaters.
1412: An OpenBSD BOF was held one evening, led by Theo de Raadt.
1413: A PalmPilot schedule loader was at the membership booth, powered by OpenBSD.

1415: The terminal room ran OpenBSD 2.4 on 45 machines. Obviously trust in OpenBSD
