Yes, thanks for the reminder.  I just prefer the CD sized one so...I
ordered another audio CD.

There's a wireframe puffy sticker with the audio cd? Gotta buy one now :P

Yes, I agree with Daniel Ouellet too. Buying the projects releases and
merchandise really gives that nice warm and fuzzy feeling by knowing
that you are supporting a project that has, in my opinion, great
ideals. And because security matters too!

Thanks everyone, let's keep the project going =)

You've been missing out.

What surprised me about the audio cd is that my non-geeky friends like
it.  OK, that didn't surprise me.  It shocked me.

My 4 year old girl *loves* Humppa Negala. She says it makes her feet
dance.

The CD is great, and I'm glad you did it.

The wireframe puffy sticker  from last time went on my Kawasaki.
Maybe I'll have to buy a new bike for a new sticker...(dreaming of a ducati)

Hi!


Why? The OpenBSD music I heard was just *good* music, even without
regard to the text.

Kind regards,

Hannah.

Pufferix was a big hit with my friends, and I often get comments on
the t-shirt (and not always too point out the chocolate stain).  The
4.1 comix required a bit more context for people and was a tad
esoteric.  I really liked it and the song, but my girlfriend was
dumbfounded by the inside jacket graphics with the MS tanks and planes
and the thieves.

OpenBSD has made me rethink my relationship to alot of projects (open
source and political) I am involved with, in a positive way.  It made
me realize that these projects need funding to get things done and I
should contribute what I can myself as opposed to assuming someone
else will do it.

I just saw that OpenBSD is now accepting recurring donations via
PayPal!  Awesome!  I just signed up.  One or two less restaurant
visits a month is a small price to pay for a excellently documented,
stable, and secure operating system at the core of my home and
business network.

Salut,


I think it is a very important aspect to understand that noone will do
your work for you in a reasonable timeframe in a project that you will
find respectable. Your best chances to get new things in or bugs fixed
is to send a PR along with a patch to the developers; but from time to
time not even that will do it.

Good that you realized it, though. I think that people who did are the
force which is driving Open Source.

Damn all this peer pressure. Now I've had to go and order as well.
