1.132 louis 1701: More than 10 OpenBSD team members showed up. By far, OpenBSD was the
1702: largest representative group from free software at the conference.
1703: Usenix gave us a table in the vendor area where we sold 2.4 CDROMs,
1.413 grunk 1704: 2.3 "wire-frame" T-shirts, and the new 2.4 embroidered
1705: "Because security matters..." T-shirts, polos, and sweaters.
1.132 louis 1706: An OpenBSD BOF was held one evening, led by Theo de Raadt.
1707: A PalmPilot schedule loader was at the membership booth, powered by OpenBSD.
1708: <br>
1709: The terminal room ran OpenBSD 2.4 on 45 machines. Obviously trust in OpenBSD
1710: had increased since many people,normally wary of security problems of open
1711: terminal rooms, were seen using the machines.
