48: Join Puffy Hood and his Funny Fish as they take on
49: the Sherriff (an unelected leader) and other evil
50: forces of the draconian government!
51: <p>
52: <br>
53: As we did for the 3.3 release, we have once again tried
54: making release artwork and music which are allegorical
55: of recent happenings.
56: <p>
57: Two years ago we became involved with the University
58: of Pennsylvania and DARPA, who were funding us to do
59: security research and development .. on things that
60: we were already intending to do. We provided ideas,
61: wrote papers, and deployed cutting-edge technology;
62: DARPA provided finances and reaped a share of the
63: credit, and the University of Pennsylvania acted as
64: a middle-man. We accepted funding based on the
65: promise that our freedom to operate as we wished
66: was unaffected. To us, freedom is more important
1.21 ! deraadt 67: than funding -- heck, we were dealing with the evil
1.20 deraadt 68: forces of government, and needed to be careful.
69: <p>
70: A few months prior to this release, DARPA suddenly
71: and without warning decided to withdraw that funding;
72: they also aggressively backed out of contractual
73: obligations. Many articles in the <a href=press.html>press</a> followed regarding
74: this sudden manuevre. Apparently this hoopla happened
75: because an OpenBSD-related article in the Canadian
76: newspaper The Globe & Mail had quoted Theo de Raadt
77: making anti-war statements regarding Iraq and the
78: theft of oil.
79: <p>
80: The only answer given (to major media reporters) by a
81: DARPA spokesperson (Jan Walker) was this:
82: <p>
83: "As a result of the DARPA review of the
84: project, and due to world events and the evolving
85: threat posed by increasingly capable nation-states,
86: the Government on April 21 advised the University
87: to suspend work on the "security fest" portion of
88: the project."
89: <p>
90: That almost toes the line of calling us terrorists!
91: We had lost financial support, but the release of the
92: statement above suddenly made us very happy to be free
93: of any perceived obligation to such crazy people.
94: <p>
95: Since the termination came near natural contract
96: termination (about 4 months remained), less damage
97: than expected was sustained by the project. Sponsors
98: stepped forward and helped us make up the missing funds
99: we needed to run our "Hackathon", and the event
100: proceeded as planned. We even had t-shirts made with
101: "Workstations of Mass Development" artwork for those
102: developers who attended (sorry, they are not for sale).
103: <p>
104: We could not make stories like this up. So instead,
105: we are making up an allegory about it, using the tale
106: of Robin Hood.

112: Sir Puffy of Ramsay was a wandrin'<br>
113: Through forests of seaweed all alone<br>
114: He had found the crusades<br>

116: So for now he called Nothing Hack home<br>

122: other fish of their kind<br>
123: Thwarting evil with humppa and math<br>

129: for to share online<br>
130: And burning down the village cause he was a slime<br>

150: Aaaw! Word to the sea y'all<br>
151: The Hood's a bad ball<br>
152: Ya underneath he's a heathen and a traitor<br>
153: He can take from you all and say "later!"<br>
154: Think he's a hero?<br>
155: Naw he ain't lovin' ya<br>
156: He gettin' richer than Bill Gates and Dubaya<br>
157: Read the Wanted poster<br>
158: of Sheriff Plac-o-derm fool<br>
159: We gettin' back the booty<br>
160: or we take away your worms too<br>
161: <br>
162: <br>
163: Yo! Word to the classes<br>
164: Put on your glasses<br>
165: I guess the Sheriff is King till this passes<br>
166: Times are a changin' and movin' so fast<br>
167: He says "Give me your freedom,<br>
168: I'll grasp it and pass it to brass<br>
169: who can hash it for weapons of massive distraction.<br>
170: And hand me the bastards that brashly amassed from the cash<br>
171: happy faction of oily and gassy co-action".<br>
172: No! Don't hand em dick, grab a stick, keep attacking for freedom<br>
173: and hack till the King cometh back and leave em'<br>
174: <br>
175: <br>
176: Then trouble was a rollin' with an army on the run<br>
177: The Sheriff came a callin' for for the spikey one<br>
178: And took back all the booty<br>
179: Puff intended for the poor<br>

184: And also found Maid Marlin held against her will<br>
185: He loaded all the loot<br>
