Hi Stuart, the openbsd group doesn't have a BBB?
I replied to Nick's letter but I forgot to reply ALL. Is 5.5 going to be released next week? Thanks for all the rapid replies on this thread! I have openBSD 5.4 and snapshot of 5.5 on VMs but I wanted to also try it on my BBB. Looks like some great progress has been made with this platform and OS!
