710: "BLOBS sind das Krebsgeschwür freier Software" (Blobs are the
1.485 mbalmer 711: cancer of free software) that was well attended. Unfortunately no one

713: distributions...
714: <li>After lunch, Marc Balmer started the afternoon with a talk "OpenBSD
715: as a Strategic Platform for the Basle Public Schools", outlining how and
1.485 mbalmer 716: why the Basle Public school system uses OpenBSD for most of its
1.484 mbalmer 717: infrastructure.
1.592 claudio 718: <li>The next OpenBSD specific talk was by Claudio Jeker,
719: <a href="papers/linuxtag06-network/">"Routing with OpenBSD using
720: OpenOSPFD and OpenBGPD"</a> where he showed various routing setups and
721: how full redundancy can be achieved.
