I second that - it is the attitude of how the devs (and Theo in particular)
strive for a clean code and fight the temptation to implement a 'twist' only
to allow some poorly written app to run on OpenBSD. Remember the outcry some
years ago when a change broke backward compatibility disabling some poorly
written apps to run under OpenBSD since then? 'Security' is just another
result out of this firm stand for their believes.

BTW: Anyone around who has not yet bought his set of CDs? Believe me - this is
a clever investment in future development and a fine way saying THANK YOU!
