Yeah, why not. I also bought a CD set two years ago when they desperately asked for money. I was never able to install it, even with the help of the leaflet, the online documentation and the rather unfriendly bitter community of the mailing list. I still have the CD set somewhere in the dust. I don't see much future in this project, especially that alternatives are secure enough for most people and companies. I don't know how long this project will survive.

Are projecting your own incompetence on a project you
might be able to participate from?

I used OpenBSD once in a while and of course, it's not shiny, brushed steel as my Mac OS X. But it's perfectly to develop and run secure server applications.

Regards
