OpenBSD Turns 10

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on Tuesday October 18, 2005 @03:07PM from the great-work-continues dept.

Eh-Wire writes to tell us OpenBSD Journal is reporting that OpenBSD is officially ten-years-old today. After some confusion, it was decided that 10 years ago today marked the birth of OpenBSD when Theo de Raadt committed his makefile to CVS.

I have been using OBDS for 5 years and it gets better every year. Congrats to Theo and his team. Great OS for just about anything that needs to be done right and secure. No complaints here, just wish my linux boxes would run as well as OBSD.

I guess you don't follow misc@ much, do you? I've seen worse from Theo, BFD. As others have said it's the quality of the OS that counts.

He insulted you? Boo hoo.
He actually answered you very reasonably, and lost patience only when you went on repeating the same thing through the thread. Try that sort of thing with Theo and see where you end up.
