354: <li>On friday morning, Claudio and Marc moderated a panel discussion
355: "BLOBS sind das Krebsgeschwür freier Software" (Blobs are the
1.485 mbalmer 356: cancer of free software) that was well attended. Unfortunately no one
1.484 mbalmer 357: in favour of Blobs attended, although we asked almost all Linux
358: distributions...
359: <li>After lunch, Marc Balmer started the afternoon with a talk "OpenBSD
360: as a Strategic Platform for the Basle Public Schools", outlining how and
1.485 mbalmer 361: why the Basle Public school system uses OpenBSD for most of its
1.484 mbalmer 362: infrastructure.
1.592 claudio 363: <li>The next OpenBSD specific talk was by Claudio Jeker,
364: <a href="papers/linuxtag06-network/">"Routing with OpenBSD using
365: OpenOSPFD and OpenBGPD"</a> where he showed various routing setups and
366: how full redundancy can be achieved.
367: [<a href="papers/linuxtag06-network.pdf">paper</a>]
1.484 mbalmer 368: <li>Later, Marc Balmer gave a talk "Decoding Time Signal Stations using
369: OpenBSD" and explained the recent addition of timedelta sensors and the
370: first implementation of such, udcf(4).
371: </ul>
372: <br>
373: All talks where very well received and OpenBSD filled four hours of the
1.485 mbalmer 374: Linuxtag program. We thank Wilhelm Bühler, chair of the BSD-Track
1.484 mbalmer 375: at Linuxtag, for the superb and professional organization.
376: <br>
377: Of course, there was an OpenBSD and OpenSSH booth run by Wim and the
