The final total on the Absolute OpenBSD first copy auction was: $1145. The lucky (for various interpretations of lucky) winner is Bill Allaire, long-time OpenBSD supporter.

So he’s lived up to his end of the . . . → Read More: “Absolute OpenBSD” auction winner Apparently double-dog daring you people works. The Absolute OpenBSD Foundation auction is currently at $1035.

That’s not going to happen, thanks to the copyeditor. (And I do mean “thanks” in a completely non-sarcastic way.) Most of her comments are easily fixable. But she goes into detail on one point that is utterly, completely, compellingly damning. “The thing . . . → Read More: DNSSEC Mastery release Absolute OpenBSD is at the printer. I can do nothing more on this book. For better or worse, the book is complete. I’m resisting the urge to scream “I can do it better! Give me the book back, I will rewrite it until it doesn’t suck!” I got copyedits back on DNSSEC Mastery. Hopefully, the . . . → Read More: Misc: Books, and April Fool’s For those who want the dubious pleasure of encountering me in meatspace: I am a guest at Penguicon April 26-28, 2013, in Pontiac, MI, USA. I am teaching at BSDCan, May 15-18, 2013, in Ottawa, Ontario, CA. I expect to have copies of Absolute OpenBSD at both events.
