For those looking for OpenBSD advocacy material, I will allow myself to push my own "What every IT person needs to know about OpenBSD", as a three part series on the APNIC blog starting with part one at https://blog.apnic.net/2021/10/28/openbsd-part-1-how-it-all-started/, also available in one big chunk without tracking at my webspace https://nxdomain.no/~peter/what_every_it_person_needs_to_know_about_openbsd.html or *with* trackers and slightly nicer formatting at https://bsdly.blogspot.com/2021/09/what-every-it-person-needs-to-know.html - enjoy!
