The packages and ports collection does NOT go through the same thorough security audit that is performed on the OpenBSD base system. Although we strive to keep the quality of the packages collection high, we just do not have enough human resources to ensure the same level of robustness and security. Of course security updates for various applications are committed to the ports tree as soon as possible, and corresponding package security updates are made available as explained below. from: http://openbsd.org/faq/faq15.html#Intro > > > Folkert van Heusden > p.s. please cc me > -------------------------------------------------------------------- > Phone: +31-6-41278122, PGP-key: 1F28D8AE, www.vanheusden.com > Cheers Jasper -- Humppa is a serious thing!
