[lugm.org] OpenBSD/OpenSSH donations/CDs

There are various levels at which people can help with opensource. It
doesn't necessarily have to be code. 

Testing patches is a huge way to help device driver hacking.

take this for instance, I have testers for only 2 adapters, and it's 
a system-wide change to USB ethernet adapters.

running -current & testing patches is a *VERY USEFUL* way to help
your favourite open source project.

Also another things, lately, logan has been committing quite some codes upstream for openbsd, We should celebrate those [for any members who manage to get a commit ], I don't know about you ... but its kind of something that shouldn't just go unnoticed, specially as a lug, we have the responsiblity to in some way be proud of ours! :p. Specially lately you get to hear lots of dudes who do nothing being claimed as IT genius every now and then on news papers :p. Awareness it would be :p.

Please let's keep things on-topic.

You can start a new thread concerning anime if you want.

Thanks,
