2043: and to negotiate keys via IKE with everyone capable.

1.132 louis 2050: More than 10 OpenBSD team members showed up. By far, OpenBSD was the
2051: largest representative group from free software at the conference.
2052: Usenix gave us a table in the vendor area where we sold 2.4 CDROMs,
1.413 grunk 2053: 2.3 "wire-frame" T-shirts, and the new 2.4 embroidered
