Can we please add something like "Better support for OpenBSD" or even "OpenBSD binaries on our site"? I do not use OpenBSD, but I have friends who do and they often complain to me about the difficulty of getting Ethereal working. One had a problem recently with the number of open files required, for example. He said he had to up his quota from 128 (he set it at 512) in order to get Ethereal to start.

Hmmm, one solution might be for these friends to post patches when they solve OpenBSD problems ... :-)
