For what it's worth, this is why I find it helpful to subscribe to bugs@ and others even though I don't participate in the discussions there. I was trying to figure out why the dhcp/autoconf changes didn't surprise me since I couldn't see any reference to them in the upgrade/release notes. Then I remembered that I'd seen the chatter regarding it a few months back and, dhcp being a core component, researched around said chatter to see what changes I'd have to plan for. Remember OpenBSD is made by the OpenBSD developers [mostly] FOR the OpenBSD developers* and that it's given to the rest of us is largely an added bonus. It simply makes sense therefore to be privy to their discussions in order to stay most up-to-date regarding OpenBSD's progress. And sometimes, unfortunately, what the developers already know (or what's buried in documentation somewhere and thus "solved") and what the users want to be told are not the same thing. 6 months is longer than it looks. Matthew [*] This is not the whole story and I'm not speaking on OpenBSD's behalf, I'm trying to being concise.
