Microsoft historically funded OpenBSD because they drew on OpenBSD source for their UNIX userland in products like MS SFU. They were all too happy to fund the development of /bin/sh and /bin/ls.

They absolutely do not have any interest in any "security" matters in OpenBSD -- Microsoft Windows and Microsoft .NET are decades ahead of OpenBSD in terms of security.

Sounds as if you're saying that Windows is decades of development more secure than OpenBSD?
