Hi Janne, I don't think Wim screwed the project financially. I've read his statement on his own website (http://accounting.kd85.com/) and I've read the threads on http://marc.info/?t=123793549300001&r=1&w=2 (what a bullsh*t). I don't have any more information as I'm only an customer of Wim and user of OpenBSD. I've ordered for several years via Wim and I've done several donations via Wim (using Credit Card). I've also ordered more expensive stuff like Soekris hardware with Wim in the past. No complaints at all, the donations have all arrived where they should (so my name was mentioned on the OpenBSD site, I could trace everything via my creditcard). I've read about the history of OpenBSD and it's roots in NetBSD. And about Theo. Because all my donations have arrived in Canada, I've no reason to distrust Wim. My experiences using the webshop of Wim are positive, all of them; so again: I've no reason to distrust Wim. For this reason, I'll support Wim. If the OpenBSD-project is not able to handle this dispute in a more professional way, they 'll qualify as hobbyists and I'll support/use Linux/NetBSD/FreeBSD instead.
