onlamp.com — OpenBSD 4.2 is being released today, and as our faithful BSD interviewer can attest, there's a ton and a half of new features to marvel at. Federico Biancuzzi interviewed 23 (!) of the OpenBSD developers and has this massive report to share.

I want to try OpenBSD. Is it mainly suitable for servers though? Any change of making it become more like PC-BSD by installing KDE on it?

Awesome. Old skool rock sound. I was expecting techno.

I've come to admire some of the 'politics' in OpenBSD land (de Raddat, for example, is very outspoken in a positive way) and I have always been curious about less 'mature' (market share-wide) systems like OpenSolaris and OpenBSD.Thanks all for the answers. Muchly appreciated!
