You can download the 4.2 song here: ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/songs/song42.ogg Martin [demime 1.01d removed an attachment of type application/pgp-signature which had a name of signature.asc]

Re: 4.2 song
I think it should have been 101 instead of 11. But if it's not than it's a good easter egg :-p (and I don't get it). ropers wrote: On 08/10/2007, Craig Skinner [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Theo de Raadt wrote: And there's a few easter eggs hidden in the song as well.

Re: 4.2 song
And of course, 1001001 011 1010101 lacks the sexual innuendo, but it's a super nice thing to tell your one and only. :) --ropers

Ok, so I just now came up with this: 1001001 011 011 1010101 Using the good old IBM code page 437 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Code_page_437 ) that we know and love --and which is still encountered in some .NFO files, cf. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.nfo -- the above translates to: I [heart] ! U In other words: I'd love to bang you. It's one for that special girl's poetry book, methinks. Or it would make a cool T-shirt if you're out skirt-chasing among the geekette crowd. All in good humour of course. :o) --ropers

Perhaps: Regarding ...these are ! and U... As in not equal to proprietary (UNIX=$? unix=free?) Or in other words, free (I'm a newbie in the Unix-world so my apologies if I'm confusing free vs $ with UNIX vs unix/unix-like.)

I didn't explain my reasoning because it might have been a spoiler but now there are two others getting gold, both differing from mine in the method. Listen to the song. The two strings are broken and come out as: 100 001 that gives 41 which is A in hex 101 0101 that gives 55 which is U in hex. Gosh, three ways to make gold. OpenBSD is Alchemy! I'd award it gold in the marathon for sure. From the land down under: Australia. Do we look umop apisdn from up over?
