For what it's worth I've been trying to figure out a way to get some
funding out of my day job, but the advanced networking group I work in
doesn't really care about secure O/S's.  They're more interested in moving
large quantity packets.  The only thing I saw coming out of this is that
at least AMD now has a little bit more interest in OpenBSD due to the Red
Storm connection from my day job.

I've been trying to get our DNS people interested in OpenBSD now that it
will ship with bind9, but they're hung-up on Solaris.

I'll keep looking.
