First off the advisories we're jokes I made with friends and I never sent them out, or did I? Wouldn't make a difference anyways so here's my take. Your pointing out something I already know and I am speaking for myself and not some OpenBSD cause. FYI I use FBSD at work since it supports multi processors and has some features that Open doesn't. However 4 CD's filled with stuff that I could give a rats (let me be polite) anus about is outrageous. Its no wonder why Free is on record pace to release a slew of advisories. Listen I poke fun at everybody including OpenBSD its just my website's irreverent way of making geeks laugh when there's not much else to read about and their getting sick of the bull (let me be nice again) crap posted on sites like Slashdot and DaemonNews. THEY ARE JOKES NO NEED TO GET BENT OUT OF SHAPE like that hermophradite luser named Kitana who jumped in #openbsd on IRC and had an attack as if the world was coming to an end. >=20 > "The ports & packages collection does NOT go through the thorough security > audit that OpenBSD follows.

I do go through most of the things I install on my network. So the answer is yes, no here is one for you, would you trust your network with an OS that has had more advisories than crappier OS' (Windows) for the year? J.
