1.132 louis 2374: implementations who were tested for interoperability. The tests were

2377: and to negotiate keys via IKE with everyone capable.

1.132 louis 2384: More than 10 OpenBSD team members showed up. By far, OpenBSD was the

2386: Usenix gave us a table in the vendor area where we sold 2.4 CDROMs,
1.413 grunk 2387: 2.3 "wire-frame" T-shirts, and the new 2.4 embroidered

1.690 nick 2392: The terminal room ran OpenBSD 2.4 on 45 machines. Obviously trust in OpenBSD
2393: had increased since many people, normally wary of security problems of open
