Is it registered to Dave Feustel? The whois wideopenbsd.org reveals: Tech Name:Registration Private Which I believe invalidates the whole idea of having a whois service so we can contact the domain administrators... I mean if Google and MS both have whois contacts listed, why should people be allowed to keep their information private, but I digress. I don't think that your comment about Dave owning the domain was called for. Dave is not the owner of the domain, in fact see his question to the fisrt time this was posted way back in 2004: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=openbsd-miscm=109974430125648w=2 author of the site appears to go above and beyond to spread FUD...

Re: OpenBSD has bad security
I notice that their links section is 2 years old, which goes with the mentality behind the rest of it. They make statements and accusations against OpenBSD, but back it up with Nothing. Poor quality, poor content, poor souls... As for their 1337-ness about running on xBox, well, enough said. I am skript kiddie!!! Bow before me! w()()t! Thanks for that, a spark of entertainment for a few minutes.
