You'll like this bit:

"#Goal

OpenBSD believes in strong security. Our aspiration is to be NUMBER ONE in
the industry for security (if we are not already there). Our open software
development model permits us to take a more uncompromising view towards
increased security than Sun, SGI, IBM, HP, or other vendors are able to. We
can make changes the vendors would not make. Also, since OpenBSD is
exported with cryptography, we are able to take cryptographic approaches
towards fixing security problems.

#Full Disclosure

Like many readers of the BUGTRAQ mailing list, we believe in full
disclosure of security problems. In the operating system arena, we were
probably the first to embrace the concept. Many vendors, even of free
software, still try to hide issues from their users.

Security information moves very fast in cracker circles. On the other hand,
our experience is that coding and releasing of proper security fixes
typically requires about an hour of work -- very fast fix turnaround is
possible. Thus we think that full disclosure helps the people who really
care about security."
