Correct. Not speaking for the OpenBSD Foundation directors, but I see they list the activities they spend towards at: http://www.openbsdfoundation.org/activities.html I am not funded by the OpenBSD Foundation. Hrishi's final question is: "When one purchases a OpenBSD CD from the OpenBSD store does that money (after admin fees etc) go to Project or Foundation?". Answer: It comes to me as income. What I don't need, I use for the Project. Currently the Foundation is doing a great job of removing costs. As to what that income looks like, feel free to make some guesses and run some numbers....
