If you don't care, then what makes you think anyone else will care that you don't care?  Is your intent to tell the 
list that you don't care about the topic?

Subject: [Full-disclosure] OpenBSD - grey user's oppinion.

reading this whole discussion, did you ever considered if grey user, just like
me, will ever care ? if backdooring major *bsd distribution will make a
difference whether to choose OpenBSD or something else when it's really no
real choice between backdoored or "not" backdoored distro have any matter
? even without such Theo's confesion with his so called private mail that got
released to the public.. do i care? sure i do, but i don't have any alternative.

i keep using it in hope that it's too serious for my needs. If someone want to
invigilate me, i will check if A-Team is somewhere near my house, i would
need to have serious reasons to worry.

Pretty lame to worry about it, and me - grey user - well, prove or die, can't
take such claims seriously if really skilled set of coders can't figure it out
whether it's backdoored or not.

I don't need such confession to stop using OpenBSD, it serve well for my
purposes but i would use nothing that is well known, for critical
communication.


Some posts are paranoid about it, some IS MUST is annoying but sounds like
the person does CARE about it.


i don't. at least since it's not proved... sorry for my lame english.

marry x-mass eve, stop please. or prove. (even if you do, prove me that
the alternative is safe, no? 2bad).
