Talkback Opensource free distribution. Close the ftp mirror and develop paying distribution channels. Opensource projects have used the "free as in free beer" weapon to get exposure. At some point, the door has got to be closed.

Paying for free software may be the bargain of a lifetime

Talkback The OpenBSD team doesn't complain, they actually encourage widespread use of their code in order to increase internet security. How does changing to the GPL help OpenBSD get more donations? If you're talking about selling out, then OpenBSD will not.

64-bit Windows imminent

Talkback We have 64-bit GNU/Linux, not to mention 64-bit FreeBSD, NetBSD, and OpenBSD. Who cares? For those who haven't tried out SuSE Linux 9.x Professional, you should; I find it very easy to use as a desktop OS.

Wiping the slate clean for Windows

Talkback The barebones installation philosophy espoused here is echoed in the practices of the OpenBSD project. Here, here. And one remote hole in the default install in 8 years is definitely something to brag about.

Talkback Its family tree includes OpenBSD, NetBSD, MirBSD, BSD/386, BSD 4.2, HP-UX and SunOS, among others. As anyone in the industry of computer news should already know, FreeBSD is not a flavor of Linux. It is a descendant of Berkeley Unix.

Unix users up in arms at Bill Gates' knighthood

Talkback Bascule was clearly referring to OpenBSD, not Linux. "Bascule : "Less secure? One flaw in 7 years" Wrong again. Go to CERT and check their figures. According to CERT, Linux has had up to 3 times as many security break ins as Windows 2003.

Talkback IIRC, OpenBSD is opensource. Wait. Isn't Parts of OS X open source? And what about the source that people provide for their Applications on Windows and Mac? Is that communist because someone think that someone might be able to help it along?

Talkback OpenBSD isn't a company. Child, can you read? And just to give you a company that does, the BSD licence is used by PostgrSQL, a company which makes PostgrSQL - which is the best SQL server available.
