1.132 louis 2353: More than 10 OpenBSD team members showed up. By far, OpenBSD was the
2354: largest representative group from free software at the conference.
2355: Usenix gave us a table in the vendor area where we sold 2.4 CDROMs,
1.413 grunk 2356: 2.3 "wire-frame" T-shirts, and the new 2.4 embroidered
2357: "Because security matters..." T-shirts, polos, and sweaters.
1.132 louis 2358: An OpenBSD BOF was held one evening, led by Theo de Raadt.
2359: A PalmPilot schedule loader was at the membership booth, powered by OpenBSD.
2360: <br>
1.690 nick 2361: The terminal room ran OpenBSD 2.4 on 45 machines. Obviously trust in OpenBSD
2362: had increased since many people, normally wary of security problems of open
1.132 louis 2363: terminal rooms, were seen using the machines.

1.151 jsyn 2388: sales of shirts and CDROMs left much to be desired, we did have good

2425: "Auditing software for security" about the OpenBSD security auditing
2426: team's process and the lessons the team learned. The talk concentrated
2427: on how our process fixes bugs -- not just holes -- since one never knows
2428: when 5 bugs will act together to become a hole.

1.132 louis 2434: At Usenix 1998 there was a strong OpenBSD presence both in the Freenix
2435: and normal tracks. Theo did a general talk about what the OpenBSD
2436: project offers. Angelos held a panel about IPSEC (which is quite an
2437: OpenBSD topic since IPSEC development at that time was so much further
2438: ahead in OpenBSD than anywhere else).
2439: <br>
2440: The terminal room PCs ran OpenBSD 2.3. We sold many CDROMs. The
