Haven't used OBSD in years, but I do use OpenSSH all the time. There are lots of stuff lurking in my OS of choice, NetBSD, that came from OBSD. So I would like to thank Mircea Popescu for his generosity. I can only muster $A50 I'm afraid.

Edit: suckful spelling

Just went to try to donate. Can't seem to do it at the donation page. Can't seem to enter my Australian address in any of the US and Canada links. I am certain my CC issuer will decline it. What gives?

Nitpick, OpenBSD came out of Theo's disagreements with the NetBSD team, not the other way around.

Nothing to do with that. There are currently lots of drivers and OpenSSH of course, in NetBSD that came from OBSD.

Is it weird that OpenBSD struggles to keep the juice on in the post-Snowden era?

Linux and OSS is still exceptionally popular and well funded. FreeBSD might be a temporary exception. Their funding issues are certainly giving them lots of free press though.

Billionaire?

Hmm, the atomic integral unit of Bitcoin is actually the 'satoshi', and there are 100,000,000 satoshi in "1" notational-bitcoin. So anyone with 10 BTC or more is a "bitcoin billionaire [in satoshis]".

That must be it.
