1.132 louis 2040: Theo de Raadt presented a talk entitled
2041: "Auditing software for security" about the OpenBSD security auditing
2042: team's process and the lessons the team learned. The talk concentrated
2043: on how our process fixes bugs -- not just holes -- since one never knows
2044: when 5 bugs will act together to become a hole.

1.132 louis 2050: At Usenix 1998 there was a strong OpenBSD presence both in the Freenix

2053: OpenBSD topic since IPSEC development at that time was so much further
2054: ahead in OpenBSD than anywhere else).

2056: The terminal room PCs ran OpenBSD 2.3. We sold many CDROMs. The
