RE: WTF? Red Hat & OpenBSD?

["Sam Stern" <samstern@myrealbox.com>]

Of course it could be an April Fool's Joke. Hard to Say. I suspect
that only time will tell - especially since neither the RH nor the
OpenBSD Site has any information re: the alleged acquisition makes the
announcement suspicious. So does the date April 1, 19100


See

http://www.redhat.com/about/press_inthenews.html
http://www.openbsd.org/press.html
http://site.search.msn.com/vresults.asp?MT=openbsd&CO=20&RS=CHECKED&TP
=Must&LA=&ULo=&UDo=www.msnbc.com&DF=&UN=doc&FORM=MSNBC&SC=MSNPremium1&
SF1=Date&SO1=dsc

Bu then again, maybe the OBSD and RH folks have yet to update their
sites.

Who Knows?

Happy April Fool's!
