Secure by default. Ship with nothing and call it secure. Wow! Maybe it
shouldn't start the network by default, huh? Then that's secure, isn't
it? Start no daemons, start no shells: ZOMG!!! it's secure :P

OpenBSD got pwned a year ago with another remote hole. I hope they
find enough so they can stop bragging about 'Secure by default'.

Do you realize that many people just can not live with 'default'?
Look: people do "use" OpenBSD for things other than plain old fvwm
with xterm. And keeping security as a goal is not just for a stupid
dubious marketing campaign.
