OpenBSD Foundation Announced
OpenBDSfan writes "KernelTrap is reporting on the creation of the OpenBSD Foundation, a Canadian not-for-profit corporation intended to support OpenBSD and related projects, including OpenSSH, OpenBGPD, OpenNTPD, and OpenCVS. The announcement explains, "the OpenBSD Foundation will initially concentrate on facilitating larger donations of equipment, funds, documentation and resources. Small scale donations should continue to be submitted through the existing mechanisms.""
There are already a myriad of CVS clones. Who cares if there's another?
Yep, I agree. It seems that the OpenBSD folks (not just Theo) think that SVN is too complicated to be secure. They want to stick with the "proven" CVS protocols and RCS file formats. And yeah, they always start from scratch because they've gotta make it BSD licensed.. and besides, it gives them a feeling of ownership.
This is a pretty common pattern. Complex == insecure to them. Which, to me, implies that secure == poverty. I like security as much as the next guy, but living in poverty because you're paranoid about security is not healthy.
How we know is more important than what we know.
WHY THE FUCK are you using beastie logo with this story!? Good ole' Beastie belongs to FreeBSD and Jordan Hubbard in the first place! Get your hands off! Jordan is cool where as Theo sucks and is generally a pain in everybody's ass.
Oh yeah, dump a decade's worth of development process because you're a lazy fat cunt? We use fucking UNIX you pussy, we like UNIX tools which we have used for a long time. So fuck off you whiney shitbag and stick your fucking gentoo cd up your fat ass!
