One common problem is that sites set up by individuals may be
extremely useful at one time, but as that induvidual for whatever
reason stops maintaining the material, it goes stale over time.

Fortunately the official OpenBSD docs are generally pretty readable
and accessible, so checking the staleness of an external resource is
usually quite straightforward.  (and yes, I'm fully aware that there's
stuff out there I've written that's rapidly approaching it's sell by date)
