Thanks to rik for writing in with the following:

Highlighting the upcoming 3.8 release, SecurityFocus has posted an interview with three OpenBSD developers about the network stack protection against DoS attacks which use ICMP, a short comparison with Linux's stack, and some thoughts on OpenBGPD.

    Great article. It's always a breath of fresh air when the interviewer knows what he/she is talking about - and not asking the same old open source questions. I even learned a thing or two about tcp/ip :)

              I don't think that IP over undeadly.org will have a great future.

      If you enjoyed that article, then check out Michael Zalewski's "Silence on the Wire". Absolutely fascinating read.
