Unlike your fellows we are not your helpful volunteers and it is a lack of respect from you to assume our time is less precious than yours. If you do want to learn about the policy and stop spreading lies and disinformation, all you have to do is READ A DAMN PAGE that explains it all. I am not even giving you that link again, I've done so several times in the last days. I think that you need to take your fingers out of your ass and learn how you can use them to type the url of a search engine. People took time of their own to write pages which explain just the things you want to know, the least you could do is to read instead of assuming. > If I understand that correctly, it means that OpenBSD does distribute > binary-only firmware, which isn't free.

It's been far obvious in this thread that you do not even know what you endorse and you do not even have an opinion of your own. It is just amazing that people trust your huge and bloated license, while you don't seem to be able to even read a simple page. It makes one wonder if you are really behind it or if it's your friends that wrote it and are using you as their mascot. Unless you take time to read the existing documentation, I think we don't need to go further as you are clueless to any matter related to OpenBSD. Gilles -- Gilles Chehade
