1.132 louis 1699: implementations who were tested for interoperability. The tests were
1700: successful, both for the technology in general, and for OpenBSD in

1702: and to negotiate keys via IKE with everyone capable.

1.132 louis 1709: More than 10 OpenBSD team members showed up. By far, OpenBSD was the
1710: largest representative group from free software at the conference.
1711: Usenix gave us a table in the vendor area where we sold 2.4 CDROMs,
1.413 grunk 1712: 2.3 "wire-frame" T-shirts, and the new 2.4 embroidered

1.132 louis 1714: An OpenBSD BOF was held one evening, led by Theo de Raadt.
1715: A PalmPilot schedule loader was at the membership booth, powered by OpenBSD.

1717: The terminal room ran OpenBSD 2.4 on 45 machines. Obviously trust in OpenBSD
1718: had increased since many people,normally wary of security problems of open
