7.  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 ...

14.  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.

However, your syspatch may fail if your local mirror uses a Let's Encrypt ...

    Where different Linux distributions typically operate off a similar (if not identical) stock kernel, the BSD's have branched off in this area.
