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456: already been replaced by university researchers and their associates.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

1.105 deraadt 467: Then Mike and Kirk purified the kernel. After a bit more careful
1.104 deraadt 468: checking, this led to the release of a clean tree called Net/2 which
469: was given to the world in June 1991 -- the largest dump of free source
470: code the world had ever received (for those days -- not modern monsters like OpenOffice).
471: <br>
472: <br>
473: Some of these ragtags formed a company (BSDi) to sell a production system
474: based on this free code base, and a year later Unix System Laboratories
475: (basically AT&T) sued BSDi and UCB.
476: Eventually AT&T lost and after a few trifling fixes (described in the
477: lawsuit documents) the codebase was free. A few newer developments
478: (and more free code) were added, and released in June 1994 as 4.4BSD-Lite.
479: Just over 14 years later OpenBSD is releasing its own 4.4 release (and for
480: a lot less than <a href=orders.html>$1000 per copy</a>).
481: <br>
482: <br>
483: The OpenBSD 4.4 release is dedicated to Keith Bostic, Mike Karels, Kirk McKusick,
484: and all of those who contributed to making Net/2 and 4.4BSD-Lite free.

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

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

916: As developers of a free operating system, one of our prime responsibilities
917: is device support. No matter how nice an operating system is, it remains
918: useless and unusable without solid support for a wide percentage of the
919: hardware that is available on the market. It is therefore rather unsurprising
920: that more than half of our efforts focus on various aspects relating to
921: device support.
922: <p>
1.85 mbalmer 923: Most parts of the operating system (from low kernel, through to libraries,
1.81 deraadt 924: all the way up to X, and then even to applications) use fairly obvious
925: interface layers, where the "communication protocols" or "argument passing"
926: mechanisms (ie. APIs) can be understood by any developer who takes the
927: time to read the free code. Device drivers pose an additional and significant
928: challenge though: because many vendors refuse to document the exact behavior
929: of their devices. The devices are black boxes. And often they are surprisingly
930: weird, or even buggy.
931: <p>
932: When vendor documentation does not exist, the development process can
933: become extremely hairy. Groups of developers have found themselves focused
934: for months at a time, figuring out the most simple steps, simply because

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

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

997: But unlike Vendors,<br>
998: he at least keeps the door open<br>
999: <br>

1001: Vendors of water that should be free<br>
1002: Look upon their words and despair<br>

1007: <br>
1008: Gratis. Free. Libre. Cuffo.<br>
1009: The companies of thieves stole every good adjective<br>
1010: and left us with open source (sores)<br>
1011: sharing smaller and smaller bandages<br>
1012: for each consecutive cut<br>
1013: But with the salty water of labour<br>

1313: OpenBSD emphasizes security. It also emphasizes openness. All the code

1316: obscure the details of how to make their hardware work. They hide bugs

1327: no malicious code? No incompetent code? Inspection is impossible; you
1328: can only test the black box. And when it breaks, you have no idea why.<br>

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

1498: For a multitude of (stupid) reasons, vendors often attempt to lock
1499: out our participation with their customers by refusing to give our
1500: programmers sufficient documentation so that we can properly support
1501: their devices.
1502: <p>
1503: Take Adaptec for instance. Before the 3.7 release we disabled support
1504: for the
1.70 steven 1505: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=aac&sektion=4">aac(4)</a>
1.58 deraadt 1506: Adaptec RAID driver because negotiations with the Adaptec had failed.
1507: They refused to give us documentation. Without documentation, support
1508: for their controller had always been poor. The driver had bugs (which
1509: affected some users more than others) which caused crashes, and of
1510: course there was no RAID management support. Apparently most of these
1.59 jolan 1511: bugs are because the Adaptec controllers have numerous buggy firmware
1512: issues which require careful workarounds; without documentation we
1513: cannot solve these issues.
1.58 deraadt 1514: <p>
1515: The driver was written by an OpenBSD developer, who cribbed parts
1516: of it from a FreeBSD driver written by an ex-Adaptec employee. But no
1517: public documentation exists, and Adaptec has dozens of cards with
1518: different firmware issues. All of this adds up to a very desperate
1519: development model -- it becomes very hard for the principle of
1520: "quality" to show its head.
1521: <p>
1522: RAID devices have two main qualities that people buy them for:
1523: <br>
1524: <ul>
1.60 pvalchev 1525: <li>Redundancy
1.58 deraadt 1526: <li>Repair
1527: </ul>
1528: You want a RAID unit to provide you with redundancy, so that if some drives
1.60 pvalchev 1529: fail, your data is not lost. But once a drive has failed, you require your
1530: array to (automatically, most likely) perform the operations to repair
1.58 deraadt 1531: itself, so that it is functioning perfectly again.
1532: <p>
1533: Some vendors (or like the above Adaptec case, ex-employee) have
1534: sometimes given us some documentation so that we could write drivers,
1535: so that their devices could support Redundancy. But these vendors have
1536: never given us any documentation for performing Repairs.
1537: <p>
1538: Instead these vendors have tried to pass out non-free RAID management
1539: tools. These are typically gigantic Linux binaries, or some crazy thing, that
1.67 jolan 1540: is supposed to work through a bizarre interface in the device driver, which
1.58 deraadt 1541: we are apparently supposed to write code for without any documentation.
1542: <p>
1543: And since we refuse to accept our users being forced into depending on
1544: vendor binaries, we have reverse engineered the management interface for
1545: the AMI controllers.
1546: <p>
1547: There is no great "intellectual property" in this stuff, it is all
1548: rather simple primitives. This is all that we need to implement
1549: basic RAID management:
1550: <ul>
1551: <li>SCSI transactions on the back-side busses
1552: <li>Discovering which drives are in which volumes
1553: <li>Being able to silence the buzzer
1554: <li>Marking a new drive as a Hot-Spare
1555: </ul>
1556: <p>
1557: The AMI driver needed to support these small primitive operations.
1558: And once we had that, we rely on something else which we know: Almost
1559: all the RAID controllers would need the same primitives.
1560: <p>
1561: Thus armed, we were able to write a generic framework which would later
1562: work on other vendors' RAID cards, that is, once we get documentation
1563: or do some reverse engineering for their products.
1564: <p>
1.60 pvalchev 1565: But having been ignored for so long by these vendors, it is not clear when (if
1566: ever) we will get around to writing that support for Adaptec RAID
1.58 deraadt 1567: controllers now. And Adaptec has gone and bought ICP Vortex, which
1568: may mean we can never get documentation for the
1.70 steven 1569: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=gdt&sektion=4">gdt(4)</a>
1.58 deraadt 1570: controllers.
1571: The "Open Source Friendly liar" IBM owns Mylex, and Mylex has told us we
1572: would not get documentation, either.
1573: 3Ware has lied to us and our users so many times they make politicians
1574: look saintly.
1575: <p>
1576: Until other vendors give us documentation, if you want reliable RAID
1577: in OpenBSD, please buy
1578: <a href="http://www.lsilogic.com/products/megaraid/index.html">LSI/AMI</a>

1677: For an operating system to get anywhere in "the market" it must have
1678: good device support.<br>
1679: <br>
1680: Ethernet was our first concern. Many vendors refused to supply
1681: programmers with programming documentation for these chipsets. Donald
1682: Becker (Linux) and Bill Paul (FreeBSD) changed the rules of the game
1683: here: They wrote drivers for the chipsets that they could get
1684: documentation for, and as they succeeded in writing more and more
1685: drivers, eventually closed vendors slowly opened up until most
1686: ethernet chipset documentation was available. Today, some vendors
1687: still resist releasing ethernet chipset documentation (ie. Broadcom,
1.62 brad 1688: Intel, Marvell/SysKonnect, NVIDIA) but the driver problem is mostly
1.46 henning 1689: solved in the ethernet market.<br>
1.44 deraadt 1690: <br>
1691: Similar problems have happened in the SCSI, IDE, and RAID markets.
1692: Again, the problem was solved by writing drivers for documented
1693: devices first. If the free software user communities use those drivers
1694: preferentially, it is a market loss for the secretive vendors.
1695: Another approach that has worked is to publish email addresses and
1696: phone numbers for the marketing department managers in these
1697: companies. These email campaigns have worked almost every time.<br>
1698: <br>
1699: The new frontier: 802.11 wireless chipsets.<br>
1700: <br>
1701: Over the last six months, this came to a head in the OpenBSD project.
1702: We asked our users to help us petition numerous vendors so that we
1703: could get chipset documentation or redistributable firmware. Certainly, we did
1.52 deraadt 1704: not succeed for some vendors. But we did influence some vendors, in
1.44 deraadt 1705: particular the Taiwanese (Ralink and Realtek), who have given us
1706: everything we need. We also reverse engineered the Atheros chipsets.<br>
1707: <br>
1708:
1709: Want to help us? Avoid
1710: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ipw">Intel Centrino</a>,
1711: Broadcom, TI, or Connexant PrismGT chipsets.
1712: Heck, avoid buying even regular

1.44 deraadt 1714: to send a message.

1.44 deraadt 1723: <br>

1725: Send a message that open support for hardware matters. A vendor in
1.56 cloder 1726: Redmond largely continues their practices because they get
1.44 deraadt 1727: the chipset documentation years before everyone else does.
1728: What really upsets us the most is that some Linux vendors are signing
1729: Non-Disclosure Agreements with vendors, or contracts that let them

1839: What is up with some free software providers?!
1840: They say "Here's something free! Oh wait, I changed my mind."
1841: <p>
1842: While not exactly bait-and-switch, this is something which
1843: has been causing the community continual grief, and therefore
1844: we decided to honour a few of the projects that have decided
1.41 deraadt 1845: to go non-free. After all.. having gone non-free, no one is
1.37 deraadt 1846: going to remember them in the end.
1847: <p>
1848: This song is dedicated to a few worthy groups who
1849: have made this Free-to-Non-Free transition with their
1850: offerings in the last few years:
1851: <ul>
1852: <li>David Dawes worked for years with a team of
1853: developers to make a free X11 distribution for us to use,
1854: called XFree86, 98% of which was based on entirely free
1855: code from MIT. Suddenly, one day, he decided that
1856: we must give him more credit (ie. advertise his name) or
1857: stop using it. Within about 4 months every project had
1858: told him to get stuffed, and the community has created a
1859: replacement effort.
1.41 deraadt 1860: Now his team cannot even keep their web pages up to date...
1.37 deraadt 1861: <p>
1862: <li>OpenBSD was the first operating system to integrate a
1863: packet filter, and it was the ipf codebase from Darren Reed
1864: that we chose. But a few years later he told us that we
1865: were not free to make changes to the code. So we deleted ipf,
1866: and our new packet filter far exceeds the capabilities of the
1867: one he wrote. And other projects are switching too...
1868: <p>
1869: <li>The Apache group started from the humble beginnings
1870: of just being 'a patchy' set of changes to a completely free
1871: web server of dubious quality. But the years have changed them,
1872: and what they supply is now quite non-free... released under
1.40 jolan 1873: a license so entangled in legalese that we have absolutely no
1.51 jcs 1874: doubt that there are encumbrances hidden within. Legal terms
1.37 deraadt 1875: protect. Who are they protecting? Not your freedom.
1876: </ul>
1877: So here's a goodbye to those three groups, and a warning to any
1878: others who will follow them:
1879: Make your stuff non-free, and something else will
1880: replace it.

2005: A common theme used by the comedy crew Monty Python was to emphasize
2006: and exaggerate ridiculousnesses that their target had imposed upon
2007: themselves. Few things could be considered as humorous as making a
2008: redundancy protocol... redundant; e.g. being forced to replace it by
2009: Cisco lawyers and IETF policy.
2010: <p>
2011: We've been working a few years now on our packet filtering software
2012: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=pf&sektion=4">pf(4)</a>
2013: and it became time to add failover. We want to be able to set up pf
2014: firewalls side by side, and exchange the stateful information between
2015: them, so that in case of failure another could take over 'keep state'
2016: sessions. Our
2017: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=pfsync&sektion=4">pfsync(4)</a>
2018: protocol solves this problem. However, on both sides of the firewall,
2019: it is also necessary to have all the regular hosts not see a
2020: network failure. The only reliable way to do this is for both
2021: firewall machines to have and use the same IP and MAC addresses. But
2022: the only real way to do that is to use multicast protocols.
2023: <p>
2024: The IETF community proposed work in this direction in the late
2025: 90's, however in 1997 Cisco informed them that they believed some of
2026: Cisco's patents covered the proposed IETF VRRP (Virtual Router
2027: Redundancy Protocol); on
2028: <a href="http://www.ietf.org/ietf/IPR/VRRP-CISCO">
2029: March 20, 1998 they went further and specifically named their HSRP
2030: "Hot Standby Router Protocol" patent</a>. Reputedly, they were upset
2031: that IETF had not simply adopted the flawed HSRP protocol as the
2032: standard solution for this problem. Despite this legal pressure, the
2033: IETF community forged ahead and published VRRP as a standard even
2034: though there was a patent in the space. Why?
1.122 ! deraadt 2035: <a href="http://mirror.switch.ch/ftp/doc/ietf/vrrp/vrrp-minutes-97dec.txt">
1.30 deraadt 2036: There was much deliberation</a>
2037: at all levels of the IETF, and unfortunately for all of us the
2038: politicians within eventually decided to allow patented technology in
2039: standards -- as long as the patented technology is licensed under RAND
2040: (Reasonable And Non Discriminatory) terms. As free software
2041: programmers, we therefore find ourselves in the position that these
2042: RAND standards must not be implemented by us, and we must deviate from
2043: the standard. We find all this rather Unreasonable and Discriminatory
2044: and we *will* design competing protocols. Some standards organization,
2045: eh?
2046: <p>
2047: Due to some HSRP flaws fixed by VRRP and for compatibility with the
2048: (HSRP-licensed) VRRP implementations of their competitors, Cisco in
2049: recent times has largely abandoned HSRP and now relies on VRRP instead
2050: -- a protocol designed for and by the community, but for which they
2051: claim patent rights.
2052: <p>
2053: On August 7 2002, after many communications, Robert Barr (Cisco's
2054: lawyer) firmly informed the OpenBSD community that Cisco would defend
2055: its patents for VRRP implementations -- meaning basically that it was
2056: impossible for a free software group to produce a truly free
2057: implementation of the IETF standard protocol. Perhaps this is because
2058: Cisco and Alcatel are currently engaged in a pair of patent lawsuits; a
2059: small piece of which is Cisco attempting to use the HSRP patent
2060: against Alcatel for their use of VRRP. Some IETF working group
2061: members took note of our complaints,
1.122 ! deraadt 2062: <a href="http://web.archive.org/web/20061109082106/http://lists.microshaft.org/pipermail/dmca_discuss/2003-April/004702.html">
1.30 deraadt 2063: however an attempt in April 2003 to have the IETF abandon the use of
2064: patented technology failed to "reach consensus" in the IETF</a>.
2065: <p>
2066: A few years ago, the W3C, who designs our web protocols, tried to move
2067: to a RAND policy as well (primarily because of pressure from Microsoft
2068: and Apple), but the community outrage was so overpowering that they
2069: backed down. Some standards groups use this policy, while others
2070: avoid it -- the one differentiation being the amount of corporate
1.55 tom 2071: participation. In the IETF, the pro-RAND agents work for AT&T,
1.30 deraadt 2072: Alcatel, IBM, Cisco, Microsoft, and other large companies. Since IETF
2073: is an open forum, they can blend in as the populace, and vote just
2074: like all others, except against the community.
2075: <p>
2076: Translation: In failing to "reach consensus", the companies who
2077: benefit from RAND won, and the community lost again.
2078: <p>
2079: Left with little choice, we proceeded to reinvent the wheel or, more
2080: correctly, abandon the wheel entirely and go for a "hovercraft". We
2081: designed CARP (Common Address Redundancy Protocol) to solve the same
2082: problem that these other protocols are designed for, but without the
2083: same technological basis as HSRP and VRRP. We read the patent
2084: document carefully and ensured that CARP was fundamentally different.
2085: We also avoided many of the flaws in HSRP and VRRP (such as an inherent
2086: lack of security). And since we are OpenBSD developers, we designed
2087: it to use cryptography.
2088: <p>
2089: The combination of
2090: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=pf&sektion=4">pf(4)</a>,
2091: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=pfsync&sektion=4">pfsync(4)</a>, and
2092: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=carp&sektion=4">carp(4)</a>
2093: has permitted us to build highly redundant firewalls. To date, we
2094: have built a few networks that include as many as 4 firewalls, all
2095: running random reboot cycles. As long as one firewall is alive in a
2096: group, traffic through them moves smoothly and correctly for all of
2097: our packet filter functionality. Cisco's low end products are unable
2098: to do this reliably, and if they have high end products which can do
2099: this, you most certainly cannot afford them.
2100: <p>
2101: As a final note of course, when we petitioned IANA, the IETF body
2102: regulating "official" internet protocol numbers, to give us numbers
2103: for CARP and pfsync our request was denied. Apparently we had failed
2104: to go through an official standards organization. Consequently we
2105: were forced to choose a protocol number which would not conflict with
2106: anything else of value, and decided to place CARP at IP protocol 112.
2107: We also placed pfsync at an open and unused number. We informed IANA of
2108: these decisions, but they declined to reply.
2109: <p>
2110: This ridiculous situation then inspired one of our developers to create
2111: this parody of the well-known Monty Python skit and song.

2403: Join Puffy Hood and his Funny Fish as they take on
1.26 deraadt 2404: the Sheriff (an unelected leader) and other evil
1.20 deraadt 2405: forces of the draconian government!
2406: <p>
2407: <br>
2408: As we did for the 3.3 release, we have once again tried
2409: making release artwork and music which are allegorical
2410: of recent happenings.
2411: <p>
2412: Two years ago we became involved with the University
2413: of Pennsylvania and DARPA, who were funding us to do
2414: security research and development .. on things that
2415: we were already intending to do. We provided ideas,
2416: wrote papers, and deployed cutting-edge technology;
2417: DARPA provided finances and reaped a share of the
2418: credit, and the University of Pennsylvania acted as
2419: a middle-man. We accepted funding based on the
2420: promise that our freedom to operate as we wished
2421: was unaffected. To us, freedom is more important
1.21 deraadt 2422: than funding -- heck, we were dealing with the evil
1.20 deraadt 2423: forces of government, and needed to be careful.
2424: <p>
2425: A few months prior to this release, DARPA suddenly
2426: and without warning decided to withdraw that funding;
2427: they also aggressively backed out of contractual
2428: obligations. Many articles in the <a href=press.html>press</a> followed regarding
1.67 jolan 2429: this sudden maneuver. Apparently this hoopla happened
1.20 deraadt 2430: because an OpenBSD-related article in the Canadian
1.55 tom 2431: newspaper The Globe & Mail had quoted Theo de Raadt
1.20 deraadt 2432: making anti-war statements regarding Iraq and the
2433: theft of oil.
2434: <p>
2435: The only answer given (to major media reporters) by a
2436: DARPA spokesperson (Jan Walker) was this:
2437: <p>
2438: "As a result of the DARPA review of the
2439: project, and due to world events and the evolving
2440: threat posed by increasingly capable nation-states,
2441: the Government on April 21 advised the University
2442: to suspend work on the "security fest" portion of
2443: the project."
2444: <p>
2445: That almost toes the line of calling us terrorists!
2446: We had lost financial support, but the release of the
2447: statement above suddenly made us very happy to be free
2448: of any perceived obligation to such crazy people.
2449: <p>
2450: Since the termination came near natural contract
2451: termination (about 4 months remained), less damage
2452: than expected was sustained by the project. Sponsors
2453: stepped forward and helped us make up the missing funds
2454: we needed to run our "Hackathon", and the event
1.61 grunk 2455: proceeded as planned. We even had T-shirts made with
1.20 deraadt 2456: "Workstations of Mass Development" artwork for those
2457: developers who attended (sorry, they are not for sale).
2458: <p>
2459: We could not make stories like this up. So instead,
2460: we are making up an allegory about it, using the tale
2461: of Robin Hood.
