The Essence of OpenBSD

Contributed by jose on from the interviews dept.

Several people pointed me to the interview with part of the OpenBSD core team now playing on OnLamp . Titled "The Essence of OpenBSD", the article is an interview with Theo, Dale Rahn, Daniel Hartmeier, Jason Wright, and Miod. Each of these people offer interesting perspectives on the OpenBSD project, and the interview itself is interesting.

    I never knew OpenBSD had a core team. I always figured that TdR was its benevolent dictator.

      I don't think OpenBSD has a core; I think they just happened to pick a few developers, mostly at random.

        Probably indeed random, since miod has been kicked out some time ago...

        Theo de Raadt chose the people involved. I wrote the questions and he sent me the answers.

    This one is a little old, but I don't think it got alot of airplay. This is an interview done with the OpenBSD Core team from last year. Kind of interesting to go back and re-read it in light of everything that's happened since.

      While it's nice to have his obscene URL filtered, I'd still be happiest with publically-visible IP addresses.

        Perhaps it would keep trolls like this one away. I'm getting sick and tired of him and his cynical way of luring people to his demon possessed site; he has posted the same perverse URL three times (if not more) now!

          Wonder if it's the same anal retentive jerk giving OpenBSD mailinglists adresses to different commercial sites.

  3. By Anonymous Coward () on

    It was never listed anywhere. Playing a good cop?
    Or just going with the trend?

  4. By Anonymous Coward () on

    Wow, at least 2 trolls, or you call it useless comments. Althought i've enjoyed the article and learned a few new things, i'm wondering... how about changing 'comments' to 'additions' or turning the IP publishing back on?

      And what IP publishing does to trolls, troll?

        Well it 'just' worked in the past. Get your facts straight by reading previous articles about this, and read what it says when you post a comment.

          Hardly. I trolled just as much, the posts were just censored.

            Trolled? You're quite pathetic, really.

      what good is it to display the IP.... haven't you heard of proxies! doh!

    Theo de Raadt is very upset with Cameron and I about the article.

    Theo: "Every hour someone shows up. This is KILLING development. Developers are STAYING AWAY instead of doing development.
    ...
    You know software developers that like talking completely in the OPEN?

    I don't."

    Again, no matter how curious you are, please do NOT use ICB.
