"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."
And here we enter bullshitland. I have never since I started using OpenBSD (back in the days of 2.8) had a problem with the community. Sure, there are rude people and people who have bad days and give rude replies but that's how life is and that happens on every mailinglist. I've had my head chewed off by Theo on occasion but since I have managed to grow up I can take it for what it is and not let it get to me.
Ask a stupid question, get a stupid answer. Welcome to life.
People do this on their spare time and most people have more interesting things to do with their life than answering the same questions over and over again from people who havent even tried solving the problem themselves. (Come on, how hard is it to use Google?)
Maybe your failure to install OpenBSD reflects more on your competence and ability to read clearly written documentation than it does on OpenBSD.
"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"
Yadda yadda yadda.
