6.  Introducing dhcpleased(8)
    Now enabled by default on OpenBSD -current is dhcpleased(8), a dynamic host configuration protocol daemon written by florian@ (Florian Obser), who spoke with us about his work:. I suppose this is either the KAME project's fault, or if we don't want to go that far back, Theo's fault. At g2k16 he floated the idea of a network configuration daemon. It would collect "proposals" for IP addresses ...

10.  OpenBSD KDE Status Report
    OpenBSD has managed to drop KDE3 and KDE4 in the 6.8 -> 6.9 release cycle. That makes me very happy because it was a big piece of work and long discussions. This of course brings questions: Kde Plasma 5 package missing. After half a year of work, I managed to successfully update the Qt5 stack to the last LTS version 5.15.2. On the whole, the most work was updating QtWebengine.

17.  September 30th, 2021 syspatches: some assembly might be required
    Did you just run syspatch(8) and see it fail? Here's the reason: one of the two root certificates behind the (excellent) Let's Encrypt CA service has expired. A bug in (the "legacy" verifier of) LibreSSL also contributed. The syspatches (for OpenBSD 6.8, 032, for OpenBSD 6.9, 018) mitigate the unfortunate situation. However, your syspatch may fail if your local mirror uses a Let's Encrypt ...

23.  Stupid SSH Tricks: ProxyCommand
    Suppose there is an SSH server inside a remote network that does not have its SSH port exposed to the Internet (named "internal.hostname.tld"). If there is an SSH gateway host that you can SSH to (that has the ability to reach "internal"'s SSH port), you can use the netcat command with ProxyCommand in ~/.ssh/config to proxy your SSH session to "internal" through "gateway".
