Freedom /
The Unix Work Ethic
![](https://ircnow.org/uploads/Marketing/livefreeordie.jpg)
- We follow the UNIX philosophy:
- Do one thing and do it well
- Use text as an interface
- Avoid feature creep
- Design the output of one program to be the input of another
- Avoid interactive input when not needed
- We tightly integrate with OpenBSD:
- We write our own code
- Prefer software with better documentation
- Prefer software that can be easily audited and forked
- Keep configuration simple and choose sensible defaults
- Avoid unnecessary, 3rd-party dependencies
- We eat our own dog food
