Not OpenBSD related, but this can be achieved with standard Unix
permissions. From memory you'll need something like:
Two groups, one for read-only (R), the other for write access (W). Anyone
in the latter group should also be in the former. Then create the following
directory structure:
foo (group = R, owner = nobody, permissions = 0050)
foo/bar (group = W, owner = nobody, permissions = 2075)
The directory foo/ acts as a gate, only members of R can see below. The
foo/bar directory holds your files, readable by anyone (except this is
restricted to the group R by foo/), writable by members of W. The setgid
bit ensures new files are writable by other members of W.
