“A Canadian programmer says he will go ahead with plans to hold a “hackathon” for participants in an open-source project, despite a decision by the U.S. military’s civilian research arm to yank funding for the event.
Theo de Raadt, project leader for OpenBSD, an effort to develop a Unix operating system with a security emphasis, said he intends to seek donations or pay himself, to rent space for the gathering, in which coders detect and create fixes for security holes.”
