1.132 louis 1693: Theo de Raadt presented a talk entitled
1694: "Auditing software for security" about the OpenBSD security auditing
1695: team's process and the lessons the team learned. The talk concentrated
1696: on how our process fixes bugs -- not just holes -- since one never knows
1697: when 5 bugs will act together to become a hole.

1.132 louis 1703: At Usenix 1998 there was a strong OpenBSD presence both in the Freenix
1704: and normal tracks. Theo did a general talk about what the OpenBSD
1705: project offers. Angelos held a panel about IPSEC (which is quite an
1706: OpenBSD topic since IPSEC development at that time was so much further
1707: ahead in OpenBSD than anywhere else).

1709: The terminal room PCs ran OpenBSD 2.3. We sold many CDROMs. The
1.413 grunk 1710: first style of OpenBSD T-shirt also sold quite well.
