1.132 louis 1697: A couple of OpenBSD team members were there and some of the swedish user
1698: society as well. OpenBSD CDs were sold at a booth and at the end of a
1699: security talk, the project got applauded for its continuous strive of auditing
1700: security sensitive parts of the system.

1716: and to negotiate keys via IKE with everyone capable.

1.132 louis 1723: More than 10 OpenBSD team members showed up. By far, OpenBSD was the
1724: largest representative group from free software at the conference.
1725: Usenix gave us a table in the vendor area where we sold 2.4 CDROMs,
1.413 grunk 1726: 2.3 "wire-frame" T-shirts, and the new 2.4 embroidered
1727: "Because security matters..." T-shirts, polos, and sweaters.

1729: A PalmPilot schedule loader was at the membership booth, powered by OpenBSD.

1731: The terminal room ran OpenBSD 2.4 on 45 machines. Obviously trust in OpenBSD
1732: had increased since many people,normally wary of security problems of open

1807: project offers. Angelos held a panel about IPSEC (which is quite an
