Even though Antoine has some past as an actor, there's no way he would
write English in the same style that you do.

There's something about having worked with someone for years, you can
actually identify them with near certainty in their writings, and it takes
a lot of skill to disguise your penmanship.

On a second thought, I will just leave this matter here, before it 
unnecessarily escalates into a fireball.

In the end, I will just clear a few things please:

- I genuinely didn't knew much about the structure of openBSD community/team or 
how loved Antoine is by everyone around here in general. Nice to know it now.

- I honestly didn't intend to call him (Antoine) or anyone else for the record, 
bad in anyway. I think my homework was lacking, that is the issue here. But 
please don't bash me, for not knowing who Antoine is. You know I could still be 
actually Antoine himself in disguise doing a public opinion bath for himself :P 
(although I think, that is unbelievable at this point :D )

- I will read up about the AMIs and will then look at Antoine's github then (as 
someone suggested), thank you. I tried talking to him, and yes he seems like 
the nice guy everyone made him out to be.

- About AWS: It was not my first choice, nor did I call it a fortress anywhere. 
I knew about the drawbacks of the cloud, and I did heard about past breaches at 
AWS. In India, due to payment-option issues, a lot of services are still not 
available. Even AWS was not, until sometime ago, when they set-up a dedicated 
subsidiary to meet the regulatory requirements here. So given that my options 
are limited to begin with,.. in order to scratch one more out, I have to think 
twice.

When Nick and others pointed out that the situation is very bad (akin to using 
Windows Xp today), I understood that I needed to review my opinion of AWS 
'properly'. But before I go on to do that, it is reasonable to ask the people 
who know about it that if they have some nice starting pointers.

- On that account, I will still welcome any suggestions regarding where to host 
my first openBSD machine securely. But please email me privately. It would be 
very kind of you (and helpful!).

- Finally, I came here (to openBSD mailing lists) with a good opinion of what 
you guys (and gals) have created and continue to maintain. And I still continue 
to think good about everyone here. Thanks for the help everyone, and my 
apologies, if the slight silly nature of my query was not even enough for a 
chuckle.

Peace or Salaam to everyone.

@Nick: If you are saying that AWS is that bad, please provide some reasonable 
proof of it. What are my options otherwise? I'm not in US (rather I'm in 
India), so my options are quite limited.

Btw Yes, in regards to Cloud hosting, I'm aware of those drawbacks. I do not 
plan to keep it in the long term. Thanks for the advice btw.

@trondd: Thank you. Indeed this was my thought as well, that security is not a 
product, but a continuous process. Btw, your advice is well worded, I 
appreciate it very much.

@Bodie: Its a joy to have been of amusement to you :P

But on a serious note, as I have said to Nick above, if it is really that bad, 
please prove it to a short extent at least. Any alternative you may have in

Let go of this concept.  These are your systems.  You're the only
official.  If you want to build an AMI for AWS, you have to understand how
that process works then looking at Antoine's scripts to see if that is
what they do is trivial.  If you want security, you have to know what that
means.  "Offical" or not is irrelivant.  You can't avoid your own due
diligence by passing that responsibility onto some imagined authority.

If you're new to OpenBSD, that's great.  But that means you shouldn't be
running anything mission critical on OpenBSD if you don't know much about
it yet.  In which case, experiment.  Run whatever looks reasonably like it
might be good and see what it does.  If it makes a mess, blow it away and
start over.  Read the man pages for the commands a script runs.  Ask
specific questions if it gets down in the weeds and you can't figure out
what something is doing.  There is absolutly no difference in what's
"official" or not.  Stuff works, and is good, or it isn't.  You have to
learn the difference.

Sometimes "don't", or "if you do, you get to keep all the pieces" is a
good answer.  Sometimes "no comment" is even better.

Hey, I run OpenBSD on a chunk of rented HW myself, but I don't pretend
it is as secure as a real box in my environment that I control.  But I
picked my hosting provider based on ease and support of getting OpenBSD
working, not "leadership".

"cloud" hosting is a bit like living in a building with randomly
assigned people and sharing a bathroom.  You may end up learning things
about others you may not want to know.

You're probably a *very* occasional user of OpenBSD.

There are lots of misconceptions in that email.

There is no core team in OpenBSD.  Only developers.  Most with commit
access.

Antoine is a long-time OpenBSD developer. He wrote a lot of things.
Most of them in cooperation with other people, because he's really good
at working with others.

This appears to by Antoine's github account, yes.

This work is separate from the OpenBSD project.

It's likely it might work.

It isn't official in any capacity.

One possibility is to read up on how you create AMIs (obsd ones at
that) and make one for yourself. You are not forced to consume someone
elses AMI.

Thanks guys. I did see a reference of his name here and there. I just wanted to 
make sure (and thus asked it here).

I'm sorry, if I have caused any confusion. But my concern is similar to what 
Andreas said.

I basically want to know if what he has on his github (regarding using openBSD 
on AWS) is endorsed by the OpenBSD officially?

Or in a 'semi' sense at least i.e., similar to being not well 
verified/tested/stable etc but works.

@Gilles: I will ask him.

Being a core developer, whatever that means, does not mean that anything
you write automatically becomes officialy supported by OpenBSD.

That being said you should ask ajacoutot@ because he is a core developer
whatever that means :-)

[cut]

An OpenBSD developer may do other things related to OpenBSD, including
developing projects that are using OpenBSD, or that are for running
OpenBSD in various settings.  This does not automatically mean that
these projects are "endorsed by OpenBSD" or 100% supported.  This is a
good thing, as it would otherwise severely restrict what other public
projects an OpenBSD could be working on.

Hi Ahmad,

OpenBSD has in the past always provided a list of developers at the end of
the Release announcement.  Please see here:

https://marc.info/?l=openbsd-announce=153987110101242=2

I see Antoine on the list.  I don't know if there is a distinction between
a "core developer" and a developer, they both have @openbsd.org addresses.

Another thing you could do is hunt down commit messages in the CVS.  I've
been an openbsd user for quite a long time and meeting OpenBSD devs was
sometimes surprising because I'd never dreamed that I'd run across one.

Best Regards,
-peter

Well I wrote to Theo earlier, but still haven't received a reply from him on 
this (Its been 4 days).

Does anyone has any suggestions for me? I want OpenBSD due to reliability and 
security issues. AWS is the leader in hosting market. It is only natural to 
expect at least a FAQ or HOW-TO from openbsd team on this topic.

Through my earlier email on this list, I found out about Antoine's github, but 
I'm not sure how reliable he is. It is another thing, that I don't know how to 
run shell script on EC2, to do what he suggests.

This is a dilemma :/

@Vijay: No need to be sorry. Its cool man. Thanks for the info.

Re: Core Dev?

2018-12-03 Thread Vijay Sankar
Well, (sorry if this is too much information) my kid started using 
OpenBSD at a very young age due to Antoine's gCompris package 10 or more 
years ago. Also, there is the very useful subscription for stable 
packages at mtier.org. So unless Theo de Raadt or Antoine Jacoutot say 
otherwise, I would think he is a core developer.

What do you mean the “official way of running OpenBSD on AWS”?
