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

2022: Usenix gave us a table in the vendor area where we sold 2.4 CDROMs,
1.413 grunk 2023: 2.3 "wire-frame" T-shirts, and the new 2.4 embroidered
