1.132 louis 2631: implementations who were tested for interoperability. The tests were
2632: successful, both for the technology in general, and for OpenBSD in
2633: specific. We managed to communicate encrypted with every vendor present,
2634: and to negotiate keys via IKE with everyone capable.

1.132 louis 2641: More than 10 OpenBSD team members showed up. By far, OpenBSD was the
2642: largest representative group from free software at the conference.
2643: Usenix gave us a table in the vendor area where we sold 2.4 CDROMs,
1.413 grunk 2644: 2.3 "wire-frame" T-shirts, and the new 2.4 embroidered
2645: "Because security matters..." T-shirts, polos, and sweaters.
1.132 louis 2646: An OpenBSD BOF was held one evening, led by Theo de Raadt.
2647: A PalmPilot schedule loader was at the membership booth, powered by OpenBSD.
2648: <br>
1.690 nick 2649: The terminal room ran OpenBSD 2.4 on 45 machines. Obviously trust in OpenBSD
2650: had increased since many people, normally wary of security problems of open
1.132 louis 2651: terminal rooms, were seen using the machines.

2713: "Auditing software for security" about the OpenBSD security auditing
2714: team's process and the lessons the team learned. The talk concentrated
2715: on how our process fixes bugs -- not just holes -- since one never knows

2723: and normal tracks. Theo did a general talk about what the OpenBSD
2724: project offers. Angelos held a panel about IPSEC (which is quite an
2725: OpenBSD topic since IPSEC development at that time was so much further
2726: ahead in OpenBSD than anywhere else).

2728: The terminal room PCs ran OpenBSD 2.3. We sold many CDROMs. The
