I'm not sure why this is so tough for people, but openbsd.org pointed to a machine in Theo's house that had a slow link, and contained a not intended for public consumption mock-up of the site.Use of it as a testbed has been discontinued. There shouldn't be any links to that machine, and if there are they should die. If you are unduly burdened by having to type the machine name of web server into your browser, I vastly apologize. Please let this and all other discussion (people have been asking why it was out of sync with www for years) of the web content of openbsd.org die.
