Ideally, we want to provide packages for -stable, but at this point, we're still in development mode. It would certainly encourage more testing, although we don't want to encourage *too* much usage at this point. Development for OpenBSD is always focused on -current, which is a moving target. On that note, we are updating the 5.0.3 packages, as there have been some significant amd64 changes, and the current 5.0.3 TB doesn't run on it. And we might do an i386 build for 5.0.3 sooner than later. Stay tuned for updates. > Awesome! Thanks for continuing to work on this. > > Also, great job on the relay advocacy side too.

Even though it's been a number of releases for us, we still have a lot to do. Hardly an immediate step, but things like pledge(2) and tedu comments on OpenBSD's W^X on browser JIT engines are interesting directions. >> TDP is seeking funding to continue and extend its efforts.

We have been noticeably weak on publicity, but we are aiming to be a bit more communicative moving forward with a blog (of sorts) at https://torbsd.github.io/blog.html or bptfp7py2wclht26.onion/blog.html g ----- 5F77 765E 40D6 5340 A0F5 3401 4997 FF11 A86F 44E2
