Thanks Thomas.

The cvs@ mailling list post you linked to is about some html files,
not the actual removal of lynx from base. This commit log seems better:
http://marc.info/?l=openbsd-cvs&m=140547383709719
(A related item: http://marc.info/?l=openbsd-cvs&m=140547620010284)

My gut instinct is OpenBSD people might be more comfortable with
the OpenBSD.org links provided, rather than those offsite.
http://www.openbsd.org/faq/upgrade56.html#ToPorts
http://www.openbsd.org/56.html
http://cvsweb.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/ports/www/lynx/


Here is a link to the tech@ mailling list long discussion:
http://news.gmane.org/group/gmane.os.openbsd.tech/thread=37492
Or 4 pages..... starting from here:
http://openbsd-archive.7691.n7.nabble.com/lynx-disable-old-protocols-td251700.html

Thanks again!
