1.132 louis 2358: A couple of OpenBSD team members were there and some of the swedish user
2359: society as well. OpenBSD CDs were sold at a booth and at the end of a
2360: security talk, the project got applauded for its continuous strive of auditing
2361: security sensitive parts of the system.

1.132 louis 2373: implementations who were tested for interoperability. The tests were
2374: successful, both for the technology in general, and for OpenBSD in
2375: specific. We managed to communicate encrypted with every vendor present,
2376: and to negotiate keys via IKE with everyone capable.

2382: Dec 6 - 11, 1998, Boston, Massachusetts<br>
1.132 louis 2383: More than 10 OpenBSD team members showed up. By far, OpenBSD was the
2384: largest representative group from free software at the conference.
2385: Usenix gave us a table in the vendor area where we sold 2.4 CDROMs,
1.413 grunk 2386: 2.3 "wire-frame" T-shirts, and the new 2.4 embroidered
2387: "Because security matters..." T-shirts, polos, and sweaters.
1.132 louis 2388: An OpenBSD BOF was held one evening, led by Theo de Raadt.
2389: A PalmPilot schedule loader was at the membership booth, powered by OpenBSD.
2390: <br>
1.690 nick 2391: The terminal room ran OpenBSD 2.4 on 45 machines. Obviously trust in OpenBSD
2392: had increased since many people, normally wary of security problems of open
1.132 louis 2393: terminal rooms, were seen using the machines.

1.132 louis 2441: The router to the outside world was an OpenBSD 2.3 box. It was involved
2442: in a "capture the flag" competition in which an entire room of crackers
2443: attempted to break into it and machines running other operating systems.
2444: The OpenBSD box was not broken into.
2445: <br>

2455: "Auditing software for security" about the OpenBSD security auditing
2456: team's process and the lessons the team learned. The talk concentrated
2457: on how our process fixes bugs -- not just holes -- since one never knows

1.132 louis 2464: At Usenix 1998 there was a strong OpenBSD presence both in the Freenix
2465: and normal tracks. Theo did a general talk about what the OpenBSD
2466: project offers. Angelos held a panel about IPSEC (which is quite an
2467: OpenBSD topic since IPSEC development at that time was so much further
2468: ahead in OpenBSD than anywhere else).

2470: The terminal room PCs ran OpenBSD 2.3. We sold many CDROMs. The
