The link that points to [1] states the difference in where the money goes for CDs/donating. I wasn't aware of this split.

It seems so strange that a group of some of the most knowledgable geeks we have rely on CD's to generate important parts of their funding.

OpenBSD should start accepting Bitcoin donations.

OpenBSD is not owned by a charity, so the founder has to do credibly-commercial stuff to get food money. Selling CDs qualifies.
