361: <ul>
362: <li>On friday morning, Claudio and Marc moderated a panel discussion
363: "BLOBS sind das Krebsgeschwür freier Software" (Blobs are the
1.485 mbalmer 364: cancer of free software) that was well attended. Unfortunately no one
1.484 mbalmer 365: in favour of Blobs attended, although we asked almost all Linux
366: distributions...
367: <li>After lunch, Marc Balmer started the afternoon with a talk "OpenBSD
368: as a Strategic Platform for the Basle Public Schools", outlining how and
1.485 mbalmer 369: why the Basle Public school system uses OpenBSD for most of its
1.484 mbalmer 370: infrastructure.
1.592 claudio 371: <li>The next OpenBSD specific talk was by Claudio Jeker,
372: <a href="papers/linuxtag06-network/">"Routing with OpenBSD using
373: OpenOSPFD and OpenBGPD"</a> where he showed various routing setups and
374: how full redundancy can be achieved.
375: [<a href="papers/linuxtag06-network.pdf">paper</a>]
1.484 mbalmer 376: <li>Later, Marc Balmer gave a talk "Decoding Time Signal Stations using

378: first implementation of such, udcf(4).
379: </ul>
380: <br>
381: All talks where very well received and OpenBSD filled four hours of the

1.132 louis 2027: More than 10 OpenBSD team members showed up. By far, OpenBSD was the
2028: largest representative group from free software at the conference.
2029: Usenix gave us a table in the vendor area where we sold 2.4 CDROMs,
1.413 grunk 2030: 2.3 "wire-frame" T-shirts, and the new 2.4 embroidered
2031: "Because security matters..." T-shirts, polos, and sweaters.
1.132 louis 2032: An OpenBSD BOF was held one evening, led by Theo de Raadt.
2033: A PalmPilot schedule loader was at the membership booth, powered by OpenBSD.
2034: <br>
2035: The terminal room ran OpenBSD 2.4 on 45 machines. Obviously trust in OpenBSD
2036: had increased since many people,normally wary of security problems of open
2037: terminal rooms, were seen using the machines.
