21: Every 6 months the OpenBSD project has the pleasure to release
22: software on an official CDROM set, with artwork and a matching song.
23: Ty Semaka (our artist) and Theo borrow and mutate some theme (from a
1.108 deraadt 24: classical setting, a movie, or some genre) into the fishy world of
25: Puffy, to describe some event or controversy the project went through
26: over the previous six months. To match the art released with the CD,
27: Ty and his friend Jonathan Lewis build the song and bring in
28: additional hired musicians from around Calgary. Theo then gets the
29: pleasure (and responsibility) to write a commentary explaining it all.

432: Nearly 10 years ago Kirk McKusick wrote a history of
433: the Berkeley Unix distributions for the
434: <a href="http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ISBN%3D1565925823/openbsdA/">
435: O'Reilly book "Open Sources: Voices from the Open Source Revolution"</a>.
436: We recommend you read his story, entitled
437: <a href="http://oreilly.com/catalog/opensources/book/kirkmck.html">
438: "Twenty Years of Berkeley Unix
439: From AT&T-Owned to Freely Redistributable"</a>
440: first, to see how Kirk remembers how we got here.
441: Sadly, since it showed up in book form originally, this text has
442: probably not been read by enough people.
443: <br>
444: <br>
445: The USL(AT&T) vs BSDI/UCB court case settlement documents were
446: not public until recently; their disclosure has made the facts more clear.
447: But the story of how three people decided to free the BSD codebase
448: of corporate pollution -- and release it freely -- is more interesting
449: than the lawsuit which followed. Sure, a stupid lawsuit happened which
450: hindered the acceptance of the BSD code during a critical period.
451: But how did a bunch of guys go through the effort of replacing so
452: much AT&T code in the first place? After all, companies had
453: lots of really evil lawyers back then too -- were they not afraid?
454: <br>
455: <br>
456: After a decade of development, most of the AT&T code had
457: already been replaced by university researchers and their associates.
458: So Keith Bostic, Mike Karels and Kirk McKusick (the main UCB CSRG group)
459: started going through the 4.3BSD codebase to cleanse the rest.
460: Keith, in particular, built a ragtag team (in those days, USENIX
461: conferences were a gold mine for such team building) and led these
462: rebels to rewrite and replace all the Imperial AT&T code, piece by

1.105 deraadt 468: Then Mike and Kirk purified the kernel. After a bit more careful
1.104 deraadt 469: checking, this led to the release of a clean tree called Net/2 which
470: was given to the world in June 1991 -- the largest dump of free source
471: code the world had ever received (for those days -- not modern monsters like OpenOffice).
472: <br>
473: <br>
474: Some of these ragtags formed a company (BSDi) to sell a production system
475: based on this free code base, and a year later Unix System Laboratories
476: (basically AT&T) sued BSDi and UCB.
477: Eventually AT&T lost and after a few trifling fixes (described in the
478: lawsuit documents) the codebase was free. A few newer developments
479: (and more free code) were added, and released in June 1994 as 4.4BSD-Lite.
480: Just over 14 years later OpenBSD is releasing its own 4.4 release (and for
481: a lot less than <a href=orders.html>$1000 per copy</a>).
482: <br>
483: <br>
484: The OpenBSD 4.4 release is dedicated to Keith Bostic, Mike Karels, Kirk McKusick,
485: and all of those who contributed to making Net/2 and 4.4BSD-Lite free.

606: <br>
607: <br>
608: In 1998 when a United Airlines plane was waiting in the queue at
1.102 deraadt 609: Washington Dulles International Airport for take-off to New Orleans
610: (where a Usenix conference was taking place), one man stood up from
611: his seat, demanded that they stop waiting in the queue and be permitted
1.95 deraadt 612: to deplane. Even after orders from the crew and a pilot from
613: the cockpit he refused to sit down. The plane exited the queue
1.96 deraadt 614: and returned to the airport gangway. Security personnel ran onto
1.95 deraadt 615: the plane and removed this man, Richard Stallman, from the plane.
616: After Richard was removed from the plane, everyone else stayed
617: onboard and continued their journey to New Orleans. A few
618: OpenBSD developers were on that same plane, seated very closeby,
619: so we have an accurate story of the events.
620: <br>
621: <br>
622: This is the man who presumes that he should preach to us
623: about morality, freedom, and what is best for us. He believes
624: it is his God-given role to tell us what is best for us, when he
625: has shown that he takes actions which are not best for everyone.
626: He prefers actions which he thinks are best for him -- and him
627: alone -- and then lies to the public. Richard Stallman is no Spock.
628: <br>
629: <br>
630: We release our software in ways that are maximally free. We
631: remove all restrictions on use and distribution, but leave a
632: requirement to be known as the authors. We follow a pattern of
633: free source code distribution that started in the mid-1980's
634: in Berkeley, from before Richard Stallman had any powerful
635: influence which he could use so falsely.
636: <br>
637: <br>
638: We have a development sub-tree called "ports". Our "ports" tree
639: builds software that is 'found on the net' into packages that
640: OpenBSD users can use more easily. A scaffold of Makefiles and
641: scripts automatically fetch these pieces of software, apply
642: patches as required by OpenBSD, and then build them into nice
643: neat little tarballs. This is provided as a convenience for
1.97 okan 644: users. The ports tree is maintained by OpenBSD entirely separately
1.95 deraadt 645: from our main source tree. Some of the software which is fetched
646: and compiled is not as free as we would like, but what can we do.
647: All the other operating system projects make exactly the same
648: decision, and provide these same conveniences to their users.
649: <br>
650: <br>
651: Richard felt that this "ports tree" of ours made OpenBSD non-free.
652: He came to our mailing lists and lectured to us specifically, yet
653: he said nothing to the many other vendors who do the same; many of
654: them donate to the FSF and perhaps that has something to do with it.
655: Meanwhile, Richard has personally made sure that all the official
656: GNU software -- including Emacs -- compiles and runs on Windows.
657: <br>
658: <br>
659: That man is a false leader. He is a hypocrite. There may be some
660: people who listen to him. But we don't listen to people who do not
661: follow their own stupid rules.

762: Those of us who work on OpenBSD are often asked why we do what we do.
1.91 merdely 763: This song's lyrics express the core motivations and goals which have
1.90 deraadt 764: remained unchanged over the years - secure, free, reliable software,
765: that can be shared with anyone. Many other projects purport to share
766: these same goals, and love to wrap themselves in a banner of "Open
767: Source" and "Free Software". Given how many projects there are one
768: would think it might be easy to stick to those goals, but it doesn't
769: seem to work out that way. A variety of desires drag many projects
770: away from the ideals very quickly.
771: <p>
1.93 jmc 772: Much of any operating system's usability depends on device support,
1.91 merdely 773: and there are some very tempting alternative ways to support devices
1.90 deraadt 774: available to those who will surrender their moral code. A project
775: could compromise by entering into NDA agreements with vendors, or
776: including binary objects in the operating system for which no source
777: code exists, or tying their users down with contract terms hidden
778: inside copyright notices. All of these choices surrender some subset
779: of the ideals, and we simply will not do this. Sure, we care about
780: getting devices working, but not at the expense of our original goals.
781: <p>
782: Of course since "free to share with anyone" is part of our goals,
783: we've been at the forefront of many licensing and NDA issues,
1.91 merdely 784: resulting in a good number of successes. This success had led to much
1.90 deraadt 785: recognition for the advancement of Free Software causes, but has also
786: led to other issues.
787: <p>
788: We fully admit that some BSD licensed software has been taken and used
789: by many commercial entities, but contributions come back more often
790: than people seem to know, and when they do, they're always still
791: properly attributed to the original authors, and given back in the
792: same spirit that they were given in the first place.
793: <p>
794: That's the best we can expect from companies. After all, we make our
795: stuff so free so that everyone can benefit -- it remains a core goal;
796: we really have not strayed at all in 10 years. But we can expect more
797: from projects who talk about sharing -- such as the various Linux
798: projects.
799: <p>
800: Now rather than seeing us as friends who can cooperatively improve all
801: codebases, we are seen as foes who oppose the GPL. The participants
802: of "the race" are being manipulated by the FSF and their legal arm, the
803: SFLC, for the FSF's aims, rather than the goal of getting good source
804: into Linux (and all other code bases). We don't want this to come off
805: as some conspiracy theory, but we simply urge those developers caution
806: -- they should ensure that the path they are being shown by those who
807: have positioned themselves as leaders is still true. Run for yourself,
808: not for their agenda.
809: <p>
810: The Race is there to be run, for ourselves, not for others. We do
811: what we do to run our own race, and finish it the best we can. We
812: don't rush off at every distraction, or worry how this will affect our
813: image. We are here to have fun doing right.

917: As developers of a free operating system, one of our prime responsibilities
918: is device support. No matter how nice an operating system is, it remains
919: useless and unusable without solid support for a wide percentage of the
920: hardware that is available on the market. It is therefore rather unsurprising
921: that more than half of our efforts focus on various aspects relating to
922: device support.
923: <p>
1.85 mbalmer 924: Most parts of the operating system (from low kernel, through to libraries,
1.81 deraadt 925: all the way up to X, and then even to applications) use fairly obvious
926: interface layers, where the "communication protocols" or "argument passing"
927: mechanisms (ie. APIs) can be understood by any developer who takes the
928: time to read the free code. Device drivers pose an additional and significant
929: challenge though: because many vendors refuse to document the exact behavior
930: of their devices. The devices are black boxes. And often they are surprisingly
931: weird, or even buggy.
932: <p>

969: <br>
970: <br>
971: Puffy Baba and the 40 Vendors<br>
972: We all know the details<br>
973: Magic cave, magic words, some thieves,<br>
974: some serious loot,<br>
975: and lucky - Mister - Baba<br>
976: Who got a bad rap if you ask me<br>

982: Load one ass, take a few trips and spend<br>
983: in moderation<br>
984: Three things the average man can't - get - right<br>
985: <br>
986: <br>
987: If you know your brother is a greedy bastard<br>
988: never give him the password<br>
989: If he goes penguin on you,<br>
990: stop - being - his brother.<br>

1008: <br>
1009: Gratis. Free. Libre. Cuffo.<br>
1010: The companies of thieves stole every good adjective<br>
1011: and left us with open source (sores)<br>
1012: sharing smaller and smaller bandages<br>

1314: OpenBSD emphasizes security. It also emphasizes openness. All the code

1317: obscure the details of how to make their hardware work. They hide bugs

1328: no malicious code? No incompetent code? Inspection is impossible; you
1329: can only test the black box. And when it breaks, you have no idea why.<br>

1354: new features and improvements. OpenBSD does attempt to convince
1355: vendors to release documentation, and often reverse-engineers around
1356: the need for blobs. OpenBSD remains blob-free. Anyone can look at it,
1357: assess it, improve it. If it breaks, it can be fixed.

1499: For a multitude of (stupid) reasons, vendors often attempt to lock
1500: out our participation with their customers by refusing to give our
1501: programmers sufficient documentation so that we can properly support
1502: their devices.
1503: <p>
1504: Take Adaptec for instance. Before the 3.7 release we disabled support
1505: for the
1.70 steven 1506: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=aac&sektion=4">aac(4)</a>
1.58 deraadt 1507: Adaptec RAID driver because negotiations with the Adaptec had failed.
1508: They refused to give us documentation. Without documentation, support
1509: for their controller had always been poor. The driver had bugs (which
1510: affected some users more than others) which caused crashes, and of
1511: course there was no RAID management support. Apparently most of these
1.59 jolan 1512: bugs are because the Adaptec controllers have numerous buggy firmware
1513: issues which require careful workarounds; without documentation we
1514: cannot solve these issues.
1.58 deraadt 1515: <p>
1516: The driver was written by an OpenBSD developer, who cribbed parts
1517: of it from a FreeBSD driver written by an ex-Adaptec employee. But no
1518: public documentation exists, and Adaptec has dozens of cards with
1519: different firmware issues. All of this adds up to a very desperate
1520: development model -- it becomes very hard for the principle of
1521: "quality" to show its head.
1522: <p>
1523: RAID devices have two main qualities that people buy them for:
1524: <br>
1525: <ul>
1.60 pvalchev 1526: <li>Redundancy
1.58 deraadt 1527: <li>Repair
1528: </ul>
1529: You want a RAID unit to provide you with redundancy, so that if some drives
1.60 pvalchev 1530: fail, your data is not lost. But once a drive has failed, you require your
1531: array to (automatically, most likely) perform the operations to repair
1.58 deraadt 1532: itself, so that it is functioning perfectly again.
1533: <p>
1534: Some vendors (or like the above Adaptec case, ex-employee) have
1535: sometimes given us some documentation so that we could write drivers,
1536: so that their devices could support Redundancy. But these vendors have
1537: never given us any documentation for performing Repairs.
1538: <p>
1539: Instead these vendors have tried to pass out non-free RAID management
1540: tools. These are typically gigantic Linux binaries, or some crazy thing, that
1.67 jolan 1541: is supposed to work through a bizarre interface in the device driver, which
1.58 deraadt 1542: we are apparently supposed to write code for without any documentation.
1543: <p>
1544: And since we refuse to accept our users being forced into depending on
1545: vendor binaries, we have reverse engineered the management interface for
1546: the AMI controllers.
1547: <p>
1548: There is no great "intellectual property" in this stuff, it is all
1549: rather simple primitives. This is all that we need to implement
1550: basic RAID management:
1551: <ul>
1552: <li>SCSI transactions on the back-side busses
1553: <li>Discovering which drives are in which volumes
1554: <li>Being able to silence the buzzer
1555: <li>Marking a new drive as a Hot-Spare
1556: </ul>
1557: <p>
1558: The AMI driver needed to support these small primitive operations.
1559: And once we had that, we rely on something else which we know: Almost
1560: all the RAID controllers would need the same primitives.
1561: <p>
1562: Thus armed, we were able to write a generic framework which would later
1563: work on other vendors' RAID cards, that is, once we get documentation
1564: or do some reverse engineering for their products.
1565: <p>
1.60 pvalchev 1566: But having been ignored for so long by these vendors, it is not clear when (if
1567: ever) we will get around to writing that support for Adaptec RAID
1.58 deraadt 1568: controllers now. And Adaptec has gone and bought ICP Vortex, which
1569: may mean we can never get documentation for the
1.70 steven 1570: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=gdt&sektion=4">gdt(4)</a>
1.58 deraadt 1571: controllers.
1572: The "Open Source Friendly liar" IBM owns Mylex, and Mylex has told us we
1573: would not get documentation, either.
1574: 3Ware has lied to us and our users so many times they make politicians
1575: look saintly.
1576: <p>
1577: Until other vendors give us documentation, if you want reliable RAID
1578: in OpenBSD, please buy
1579: <a href="http://www.lsilogic.com/products/megaraid/index.html">LSI/AMI</a>

1678: For an operating system to get anywhere in "the market" it must have
1679: good device support.<br>
1680: <br>
1681: Ethernet was our first concern. Many vendors refused to supply
1682: programmers with programming documentation for these chipsets. Donald
1683: Becker (Linux) and Bill Paul (FreeBSD) changed the rules of the game
1684: here: They wrote drivers for the chipsets that they could get
1685: documentation for, and as they succeeded in writing more and more
1686: drivers, eventually closed vendors slowly opened up until most
1687: ethernet chipset documentation was available. Today, some vendors
1688: still resist releasing ethernet chipset documentation (ie. Broadcom,
1.62 brad 1689: Intel, Marvell/SysKonnect, NVIDIA) but the driver problem is mostly
1.46 henning 1690: solved in the ethernet market.<br>
1.44 deraadt 1691: <br>
1692: Similar problems have happened in the SCSI, IDE, and RAID markets.
1693: Again, the problem was solved by writing drivers for documented
1694: devices first. If the free software user communities use those drivers
1695: preferentially, it is a market loss for the secretive vendors.
1696: Another approach that has worked is to publish email addresses and
1697: phone numbers for the marketing department managers in these
1698: companies. These email campaigns have worked almost every time.<br>
1699: <br>
1700: The new frontier: 802.11 wireless chipsets.<br>
1701: <br>
1702: Over the last six months, this came to a head in the OpenBSD project.
1703: We asked our users to help us petition numerous vendors so that we
1704: could get chipset documentation or redistributable firmware. Certainly, we did
1.52 deraadt 1705: not succeed for some vendors. But we did influence some vendors, in
1.44 deraadt 1706: particular the Taiwanese (Ralink and Realtek), who have given us
1707: everything we need. We also reverse engineered the Atheros chipsets.<br>
1708: <br>
1709:
1710: Want to help us? Avoid
1711: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ipw">Intel Centrino</a>,
1712: Broadcom, TI, or Connexant PrismGT chipsets.
1713: Heck, avoid buying even regular

1.44 deraadt 1715: to send a message.

1726: Send a message that open support for hardware matters. A vendor in
1.56 cloder 1727: Redmond largely continues their practices because they get
1.44 deraadt 1728: the chipset documentation years before everyone else does.
1729: What really upsets us the most is that some Linux vendors are signing

1840: What is up with some free software providers?!
1841: They say "Here's something free! Oh wait, I changed my mind."
1842: <p>
1843: While not exactly bait-and-switch, this is something which
1844: has been causing the community continual grief, and therefore
1845: we decided to honour a few of the projects that have decided
1.41 deraadt 1846: to go non-free. After all.. having gone non-free, no one is
1.37 deraadt 1847: going to remember them in the end.
1848: <p>
1849: This song is dedicated to a few worthy groups who
1850: have made this Free-to-Non-Free transition with their
1851: offerings in the last few years:
1852: <ul>
1853: <li>David Dawes worked for years with a team of
1854: developers to make a free X11 distribution for us to use,
1855: called XFree86, 98% of which was based on entirely free
1856: code from MIT. Suddenly, one day, he decided that
1857: we must give him more credit (ie. advertise his name) or
1858: stop using it. Within about 4 months every project had
1859: told him to get stuffed, and the community has created a
1860: replacement effort.
1.41 deraadt 1861: Now his team cannot even keep their web pages up to date...
1.37 deraadt 1862: <p>
1863: <li>OpenBSD was the first operating system to integrate a
1864: packet filter, and it was the ipf codebase from Darren Reed
1865: that we chose. But a few years later he told us that we
1866: were not free to make changes to the code. So we deleted ipf,
1867: and our new packet filter far exceeds the capabilities of the
1868: one he wrote. And other projects are switching too...
1869: <p>
1870: <li>The Apache group started from the humble beginnings
1871: of just being 'a patchy' set of changes to a completely free
1872: web server of dubious quality. But the years have changed them,
1873: and what they supply is now quite non-free... released under
1.40 jolan 1874: a license so entangled in legalese that we have absolutely no
1.51 jcs 1875: doubt that there are encumbrances hidden within. Legal terms
1.37 deraadt 1876: protect. Who are they protecting? Not your freedom.
1877: </ul>
1878: So here's a goodbye to those three groups, and a warning to any
1879: others who will follow them:
1880: Make your stuff non-free, and something else will
1881: replace it.

2006: A common theme used by the comedy crew Monty Python was to emphasize
2007: and exaggerate ridiculousnesses that their target had imposed upon
2008: themselves. Few things could be considered as humorous as making a
2009: redundancy protocol... redundant; e.g. being forced to replace it by
2010: Cisco lawyers and IETF policy.
2011: <p>
2012: We've been working a few years now on our packet filtering software
2013: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=pf&sektion=4">pf(4)</a>
2014: and it became time to add failover. We want to be able to set up pf
2015: firewalls side by side, and exchange the stateful information between
2016: them, so that in case of failure another could take over 'keep state'
2017: sessions. Our
2018: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=pfsync&sektion=4">pfsync(4)</a>
2019: protocol solves this problem. However, on both sides of the firewall,
2020: it is also necessary to have all the regular hosts not see a
2021: network failure. The only reliable way to do this is for both
2022: firewall machines to have and use the same IP and MAC addresses. But
2023: the only real way to do that is to use multicast protocols.
2024: <p>
2025: The IETF community proposed work in this direction in the late
2026: 90's, however in 1997 Cisco informed them that they believed some of
2027: Cisco's patents covered the proposed IETF VRRP (Virtual Router
2028: Redundancy Protocol); on
2029: <a href="http://www.ietf.org/ietf/IPR/VRRP-CISCO">
2030: March 20, 1998 they went further and specifically named their HSRP
2031: "Hot Standby Router Protocol" patent</a>. Reputedly, they were upset
2032: that IETF had not simply adopted the flawed HSRP protocol as the
2033: standard solution for this problem. Despite this legal pressure, the
2034: IETF community forged ahead and published VRRP as a standard even
2035: though there was a patent in the space. Why?
2036: <a href="http://www.cs-ipv6.lancs.ac.uk/ipv6/documents/standards/general-comms/ietf/vrrp/vrrp-minutes-97dec.txt">
2037: There was much deliberation</a>
2038: at all levels of the IETF, and unfortunately for all of us the
2039: politicians within eventually decided to allow patented technology in
2040: standards -- as long as the patented technology is licensed under RAND
2041: (Reasonable And Non Discriminatory) terms. As free software
2042: programmers, we therefore find ourselves in the position that these
2043: RAND standards must not be implemented by us, and we must deviate from
2044: the standard. We find all this rather Unreasonable and Discriminatory
2045: and we *will* design competing protocols. Some standards organization,
2046: eh?
2047: <p>
2048: Due to some HSRP flaws fixed by VRRP and for compatibility with the
2049: (HSRP-licensed) VRRP implementations of their competitors, Cisco in
2050: recent times has largely abandoned HSRP and now relies on VRRP instead
2051: -- a protocol designed for and by the community, but for which they
2052: claim patent rights.
2053: <p>
2054: On August 7 2002, after many communications, Robert Barr (Cisco's
2055: lawyer) firmly informed the OpenBSD community that Cisco would defend
2056: its patents for VRRP implementations -- meaning basically that it was
2057: impossible for a free software group to produce a truly free
2058: implementation of the IETF standard protocol. Perhaps this is because
2059: Cisco and Alcatel are currently engaged in a pair of patent lawsuits; a
2060: small piece of which is Cisco attempting to use the HSRP patent
2061: against Alcatel for their use of VRRP. Some IETF working group
2062: members took note of our complaints,
2063: <a href="http://lists.microshaft.org/pipermail/dmca_discuss/2003-April/004702.html">
2064: however an attempt in April 2003 to have the IETF abandon the use of
2065: patented technology failed to "reach consensus" in the IETF</a>.
2066: <p>
2067: A few years ago, the W3C, who designs our web protocols, tried to move
2068: to a RAND policy as well (primarily because of pressure from Microsoft
2069: and Apple), but the community outrage was so overpowering that they
2070: backed down. Some standards groups use this policy, while others
2071: avoid it -- the one differentiation being the amount of corporate
1.55 tom 2072: participation. In the IETF, the pro-RAND agents work for AT&T,
1.30 deraadt 2073: Alcatel, IBM, Cisco, Microsoft, and other large companies. Since IETF
2074: is an open forum, they can blend in as the populace, and vote just
2075: like all others, except against the community.
2076: <p>
2077: Translation: In failing to "reach consensus", the companies who
2078: benefit from RAND won, and the community lost again.
2079: <p>
2080: Left with little choice, we proceeded to reinvent the wheel or, more
2081: correctly, abandon the wheel entirely and go for a "hovercraft". We
2082: designed CARP (Common Address Redundancy Protocol) to solve the same
2083: problem that these other protocols are designed for, but without the
2084: same technological basis as HSRP and VRRP. We read the patent
2085: document carefully and ensured that CARP was fundamentally different.
2086: We also avoided many of the flaws in HSRP and VRRP (such as an inherent
2087: lack of security). And since we are OpenBSD developers, we designed
2088: it to use cryptography.
2089: <p>
2090: The combination of
2091: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=pf&sektion=4">pf(4)</a>,
2092: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=pfsync&sektion=4">pfsync(4)</a>, and
2093: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=carp&sektion=4">carp(4)</a>
2094: has permitted us to build highly redundant firewalls. To date, we
2095: have built a few networks that include as many as 4 firewalls, all
2096: running random reboot cycles. As long as one firewall is alive in a
2097: group, traffic through them moves smoothly and correctly for all of
2098: our packet filter functionality. Cisco's low end products are unable
2099: to do this reliably, and if they have high end products which can do
2100: this, you most certainly cannot afford them.
2101: <p>
2102: As a final note of course, when we petitioned IANA, the IETF body
2103: regulating "official" internet protocol numbers, to give us numbers
2104: for CARP and pfsync our request was denied. Apparently we had failed
2105: to go through an official standards organization. Consequently we
2106: were forced to choose a protocol number which would not conflict with
2107: anything else of value, and decided to place CARP at IP protocol 112.
2108: We also placed pfsync at an open and unused number. We informed IANA of
2109: these decisions, but they declined to reply.
2110: <p>
2111: This ridiculous situation then inspired one of our developers to create
2112: this parody of the well-known Monty Python skit and song.

2404: Join Puffy Hood and his Funny Fish as they take on
1.26 deraadt 2405: the Sheriff (an unelected leader) and other evil
1.20 deraadt 2406: forces of the draconian government!
2407: <p>
2408: <br>
2409: As we did for the 3.3 release, we have once again tried
2410: making release artwork and music which are allegorical
2411: of recent happenings.
2412: <p>
2413: Two years ago we became involved with the University
2414: of Pennsylvania and DARPA, who were funding us to do
2415: security research and development .. on things that
2416: we were already intending to do. We provided ideas,
2417: wrote papers, and deployed cutting-edge technology;
2418: DARPA provided finances and reaped a share of the
2419: credit, and the University of Pennsylvania acted as
2420: a middle-man. We accepted funding based on the
2421: promise that our freedom to operate as we wished
2422: was unaffected. To us, freedom is more important
1.21 deraadt 2423: than funding -- heck, we were dealing with the evil
1.20 deraadt 2424: forces of government, and needed to be careful.
2425: <p>
2426: A few months prior to this release, DARPA suddenly
2427: and without warning decided to withdraw that funding;
2428: they also aggressively backed out of contractual
2429: obligations. Many articles in the <a href=press.html>press</a> followed regarding
1.67 jolan 2430: this sudden maneuver. Apparently this hoopla happened
1.20 deraadt 2431: because an OpenBSD-related article in the Canadian
1.55 tom 2432: newspaper The Globe & Mail had quoted Theo de Raadt
1.20 deraadt 2433: making anti-war statements regarding Iraq and the
2434: theft of oil.
2435: <p>
2436: The only answer given (to major media reporters) by a
2437: DARPA spokesperson (Jan Walker) was this:
2438: <p>
2439: "As a result of the DARPA review of the
2440: project, and due to world events and the evolving
2441: threat posed by increasingly capable nation-states,
2442: the Government on April 21 advised the University
2443: to suspend work on the "security fest" portion of
2444: the project."
2445: <p>
2446: That almost toes the line of calling us terrorists!
2447: We had lost financial support, but the release of the
2448: statement above suddenly made us very happy to be free
2449: of any perceived obligation to such crazy people.
2450: <p>
2451: Since the termination came near natural contract
2452: termination (about 4 months remained), less damage
2453: than expected was sustained by the project. Sponsors
2454: stepped forward and helped us make up the missing funds
2455: we needed to run our "Hackathon", and the event
1.61 grunk 2456: proceeded as planned. We even had T-shirts made with
1.20 deraadt 2457: "Workstations of Mass Development" artwork for those
2458: developers who attended (sorry, they are not for sale).
2459: <p>
2460: We could not make stories like this up. So instead,
2461: we are making up an allegory about it, using the tale
2462: of Robin Hood.
