I think you are putting words in my mouth. I am simply trying to express
an opinion through satire (however pathetic it might be, I don't have much
time or creativeness -- the only reason it's being paid attention to I'd
imagine is because of it's address). Again I stress the fact that I've
included a disclaimer & linked the real openbsd.org site. If my
only intention was to defame and harm the openbsd project, I would just
leave it completely separate and let people assume that the project's web
site had been hacked (is this really what you are worried about?) -- I
also thought I made it obvious enough that I was not associated with the
project.
And as far as putting more words in my mouth, I didn't "brag" about
receiving e-mail from openbsd.com -- I literally *offered* to change the
mail exchanger records to go to the proper openbsd system. And I asked
what system that was and suggested that you make changes in your
configuration so that it works -- to which I got no response.

People in the USA have made many threats including some on my net
connection, others on my *life*. Is this what you mean? Are you sure you
aren't blowing this out of proportion?

So that I can receieve more threats from a new group of people for
expressing an unpopular opinion?
BTW: What exactly did you do to the NetBSD project?
Bah humbug,
