This doesn't mean that OpenBSD is no longer in need of monthly recurring funding, quite the opposite! Use the Paypal link on the foundation web page! I'm surprised that more businesses can't afford a relatively meager $100/mo recurring funding. Yearly funding from the likes of Google and MPEx are hardly guarantees!! They are saving graces that make up for the shortfall from everyone else!!! If people really want to see OpenBSD be successful, you need to put your money in the game. The ISP/NSP types who are generally bigger users should ALL be participating in some kind of monthly recurring funding. There is now a lot of development effort geared towards improving performance to fit YOUR needs, why can't YOU help to ensure that the development environment continues on? Chris
