OpenBSD, POSSE, & conspiracy

For those who don't know, OpenBSD had DARPA contract funds through the POSSE program run out of UPenn. For some reason, the remainder of the contract was recently cancelled. Theo was using a portion of the contract to fund the upcoming hackathon - that's now in jeopardy. For the record, this sucks but I don't necessarily subscribe to the conspiracy theories being promoted by the folks on the openbsd-misc mailing list. I think that gives the gov't too much credit. Still, please take the time to donate - OpenBSD is a great project and deserves the backing. We as a community should help make up the shortfall.
