1.132 louis 1733: More than 10 OpenBSD team members showed up. By far, OpenBSD was the
1734: largest representative group from free software at the conference.
1735: Usenix gave us a table in the vendor area where we sold 2.4 CDROMs,
1.413 grunk 1736: 2.3 "wire-frame" T-shirts, and the new 2.4 embroidered

1741: The terminal room ran OpenBSD 2.4 on 45 machines. Obviously trust in OpenBSD
