openBSD credo: security bugs are just bugs.<p>Mostly human, and avoidable but always present because people don't take the time to do it correctly.
Quality, taking the time to make the things right, slowly, correctly, all that matters more than genius. Quality code at all level is the key to secure development. Every little things count.<p>I know a few openBSD developers, and their song about doing the right things, taking our times to do it correctly - simpler, with quality because it is the shortest path to correctness thus speed (what is the use of an incorrect program: none). This song is appealing. The fact they are strangely psychopathic paranoid nerds is not ;)<p>I think computer industry would be far better if we would slow down and focus on doing less software, but better built.<p>Less functionalities maybe, but the one that maybe more powerful. The stable foundation for sustainable progress.<p>And, if you like them -even though they are repulsing antipathic nerds- you can support them :)
