    Pretty much -all- of the commits I've seen had to do with syncing with the OpenBSD tree. Just how much code has the ekkoBSD project itself written?

    So all I need to know is why should ekkoBSD exist?

    I used to ask the same thing - then I realized the correct answer is: why not? Even if all it does in it's entire lifetime is make five or six people happy then it has accomplished something.

    Damn. I hate when I get feeling all happy with the world.
