OpenBSD did not upgrade to 2.X. You're talking about ports, which are separate from the base operating system. For accurate information about OpenBSD, right now, check:

http://www.openbsd.org/55.html

Regarding ports, they're basically a compilation build system that complements binary packages (which OpenBSD also has) for 3rd party software not installed with the base system . See:

My bad. So OpenBSD included Apache will still be 1.3 even in the upcoming 5.5. (along a more modern nginx)

Thanks for the info.
