I'm surprised the OpenBSD team is accepting the commits

Theo has come a long way since he lost beaucoup bucks by spitting in DARPA's face after taking their money.[1] Now Microsoft and OpenBSD are besties.[2]

There are a few companies that give money to OpenBSD. Far too few, but there are some: http://www.openbsdfoundation.org/contributors.html

The saddest thing to me is that Yandex is on there. Not because they shouldn't be, but because so many American and Western companies are willing to take, take, take, but are unwilling to give back even a little bit.
