1.132 louis 1391: A couple of OpenBSD team members were there and some of the swedish user
1392: society as well. OpenBSD CDs were sold at a booth and at the end of a
1393: security talk, the project got applauded for its continuous strive of auditing
1394: security sensitive parts of the system.

1.132 louis 1407: implementations who were tested for interoperability. The tests were
1408: successful, both for the technology in general, and for OpenBSD in
1409: specific. We managed to communicate encrypted with every vendor present,
1410: and to negotiate keys via IKE with everyone capable.

1.132 louis 1417: More than 10 OpenBSD team members showed up. By far, OpenBSD was the
1418: largest representative group from free software at the conference.
1419: Usenix gave us a table in the vendor area where we sold 2.4 CDROMs,
1420: 2.3 "wire-frame" t-shirts, and the new 2.4 embroidered
1421: "Because security matters..." t-shirts, polos, and sweaters.
1422: An OpenBSD BOF was held one evening, led by Theo de Raadt.
1423: A PalmPilot schedule loader was at the membership booth, powered by OpenBSD.
1424: <br>
1425: The terminal room ran OpenBSD 2.4 on 45 machines. Obviously trust in OpenBSD
1426: had increased since many people,normally wary of security problems of open
1427: terminal rooms, were seen using the machines.

1500: and normal tracks. Theo did a general talk about what the OpenBSD
1501: project offers. Angelos held a panel about IPSEC (which is quite an
