Theo de Raadt said in the past:

"3. mail from Theo, 12.03.2007 03:00:

Did you even think about the fact that there are only two operating
systems that ship without blobs?

OpenBSD

Debian (and derived systems)"

You are not one of "the other BSDs". Your campaign will not support
more documentation. It puts the name of BLOB-including operating
systems on a poster saying that they are anti-blob. That's a bald
lie, and it undermines our effort.

OpenBSD distinguishes itself on the fact that it does not include
blobs. Most other operating systems are completely fine with
incorporating blobs. The other projects you are showing on the poster
specifically include blobs. They do NOT help us get documentation."

I wonder:

Did you even think about the fact that there are only two operating
systems that ship without blobs?

OpenBSD still distinguishes itself on the fact that it does not include
blobs?

I posted this topic also in FreeBSD Forums:

I wonder what Theo de Raadt  would say about it.

Thank you
