Yes. I was pretty determined to stay out of this thread entirely, but I think you touch on an important point here. Like most people who have been in the field for a while I have a lot of respect for Richard's efforts, but whether he recommends using OpenBSD or not or whether he is acting on incorrect information about what ships with the system is in fact not that interesting. Richard is entitled to his opinions, and if his opinion of what 'free' means is different from a some other group's, that's something I for one can live with. What /is/ interesting, in my view, is the fact that OpenBSD is where some of the best technology available today, certainly when it comes to networking, is developed. And there's more to come. Using OpenBSD we build the systems we need, and they work a helluva lot better than most of the other stuff out there. OpenBSD is free and lets us create reliable, high performance, low maintenance networks and services, Stuff That Just Works. In fact it's so good it makes you *want* to contribute back. That's what I want to emphasize. - P -- Peter N. M.
