Except, sir, at some point, someone made a mistake. And this mistake

has blown up in to this thread with this ongoing argument. Their

report was either not as accurate as you seem to think, or you're very

badly expressing the contents of the report (which has not been made

available to the OpenBSD community).
Yes, the port system allows easy installation of "non-free" and "non-

opensource" software. It does so no less easily than Debians Apt,

Redhat's RPM, and other package repositories built for any Linux based

distribution that distributes on the Internet.
Packages ARE free for distribution, or they wouldn't be available on

the FTP site, the CDROM, or distributed at all. If they are not,

they're no included. Period.
Someone on your staff is a lazy little punk and permitted their own

bias to be reflected in your words. In the end, what you said is still

what's on record.
