OpenBSD Project uses CD-ROM sales to fund OpenBSD
The 4 distfile directory contains the source code of a great deal of add-on OpenBSD software. Not all mirror sites carry this directory, as it’s quite large. The 5 ftplist file lists the official FTP and HTTP installation mirrors. When you install via FTP later, the install program will grab this file to allow you to choose a mirror site close to you. The 6 patches directory contains directories for each previous release of OpenBSD, and various patches for that release. Security problems and critical bugs can be patched after a release, and they are made available here. The 7 snapshots directory contains recent experimental versions of OpenBSD, generally from between releases. If you want to see what’s coming in future versions of OpenBSD, you can install a snapshot. Because these are works-in-progress, support is minimal. The developers appreciate bug reports on snapshots, but don’t support snapshots. The 8 songs directory contains the “soundtracks” for each release of OpenBSD. If all you want to do is browse the source code of the most recent release of OpenBSD, you can trawl through the 9 src directory. The source code is kept here in plain-text, human-readable format. There are easier ways to browse the source code, however: the OpenBSD website includes the source code on the Web, complete with revision history and developer comments. Finally, the tools directory contains odds and ends that are useful for the OpenBSD Project’s internal workings. Whether you have a CD-ROM or FTP access to the software, what you’re almost certainly most interested in is the release directory for the latest version of OpenBSD. Page 40
