Now, that OpenBSD runs on Xen (and, by extension, on Amazon EC2), is there an official AMI?

If I understand correctly, this also means that the main excuse for it not being supported on DigitalOcean is now alleviated. :- )

DO relies on KVM which OpenBSD has supported for a good while. If you are interested in something similar - including price-wise - to digital ocean with support for OpenBSD, I encourage you to try https://exoscale.ch

Doesn't DigitalOcean use KVM?

I stand corrected, seems it's KVM.

Seems some other people were confused. I've been told in other places that it's Xen. OpenBSD has had working virtio-blk and virtio-net drivers since about 5.3/5.4/5.5 IIRC. hmm...
