>"All of those features have been integrated in the OpenBSD source tree, and with the developers admonished to adhere to the rule "where it is possible to spot damage, fail hard". -which means that poorly written software will crash a lot more often on OpenBSD than elsewhere." In other words, testing software on OpenBSD -- is one great way to find some types of bugs and other incorrect software designs... In other words, testing software on OpenBSD -- can be thought of as applying a higher degree of correctness, rigor, and discipline -- to Software Engineering... Sort of like a 'lint', but for a runtime... It's not the only software test, that's true, not by a long shot -- but testing on OpenBSD would make a valuable addition to any professional software test corpus... >"That in itself should make the platform attractive to developers." It is, and it does!
