The continuing growth of OpenBSD depends on attracting new users, developers, software suppliers, and consultants. One means of reaching new users is via users groups, where people can exchange experiences, ideas, free software, and find out that there are others with similar problems and solutions.
The following user groups are either specific to OpenBSD or at least to the BSD family of systems. However, the OpenBSD Project does not necessarily endorse any of these. Please contact the User's Group directly.
These entries are arranged geographically, so that you may more readily find a users' group near you.
If you want to see your group listed here, please email ian at openbsd.org with a filled-in version of groups-template.txt telling me the name, email and/or URL, location, and whether it is an OpenBSD group or a *BSD group.
