1701: Dec 6 - 11, 1998, Boston, Massachusetts<br>
1.132 louis 1702: More than 10 OpenBSD team members showed up. By far, OpenBSD was the
1703: largest representative group from free software at the conference.
1704: Usenix gave us a table in the vendor area where we sold 2.4 CDROMs,
1.413 grunk 1705: 2.3 "wire-frame" T-shirts, and the new 2.4 embroidered
1706: "Because security matters..." T-shirts, polos, and sweaters.
1.132 louis 1707: An OpenBSD BOF was held one evening, led by Theo de Raadt.
1708: A PalmPilot schedule loader was at the membership booth, powered by OpenBSD.
1709: <br>
1710: The terminal room ran OpenBSD 2.4 on 45 machines. Obviously trust in OpenBSD
1711: had increased since many people,normally wary of security problems of open
1712: terminal rooms, were seen using the machines.
