Hmm, how about the security issues mentioned on BugTraq and other
mailing lists?  And, has anyone ever browsed through the security
problems that have been fixed in OpenBSD?  I haven't, but if there
are security problems which could be easily fixed, I think it would
be worth doing "all that can be done".  Linux seems to have severe
security problems (at least lots of machines have been compromised, I
hear) and I hope we are safe.
