OpenBSD project goals

• Provide the best development platform possible - with full source access for openbsd developers and users
• Work towards a machine independent source tree.
• Support as many different systems and hardware as feasible.
• Be as politics free as possible - solutions should be decided on the basis of technical merit.
• Provide a good cross compile/development platform.
• Integrate good code from any source with acceptable copyright (Berkeley style preferred, GPL acceptable, NDA not).
• Import external packages with minimal modifications - making upgrading much easier. Also to submit back to the developers any changes made.
