129: "BLOBS sind das Krebsgeschwür freier Software" (Blobs are the

132: distributions...
133: <li>After lunch, Marc Balmer started the afternoon with a talk "OpenBSD
134: as a Strategic Platform for the Basle Public Schools", outlining how and
1.485 mbalmer 135: why the Basle Public school system uses OpenBSD for most of its
1.484 mbalmer 136: infrastructure.
137: <li>The next OpenBSD specific talk was by Claudio Jeker, "Routing with
138: OpenBSD using OpenOSPFD and OpenBGPD" where he showed various routing
139: setups and how full redundancy can be achieved.
140: <li>Later, Marc Balmer gave a talk "Decoding Time Signal Stations using
141: OpenBSD" and explained the recent addition of timedelta sensors and the
142: first implementation of such, udcf(4).
143: </ul>
144: <br>
145: All talks where very well received and OpenBSD filled four hours of the
