1698: Usenix gave us a table in the vendor area where we sold 2.4 CDROMs,
1.413 grunk 1699: 2.3 "wire-frame" T-shirts, and the new 2.4 embroidered
1700: "Because security matters..." T-shirts, polos, and sweaters.
1.132 louis 1701: An OpenBSD BOF was held one evening, led by Theo de Raadt.
1702: A PalmPilot schedule loader was at the membership booth, powered by OpenBSD.
1703: <br>
1704: The terminal room ran OpenBSD 2.4 on 45 machines. Obviously trust in OpenBSD
1705: had increased since many people,normally wary of security problems of open
1706: terminal rooms, were seen using the machines.
