you are correct. we suck at marketing. which is OK, because the focus of the project is to produce free and quality code. any time we spend in marketing is time we don't spend in the tree. I can live with that tradeoff.;)

OpenBSD is a project, not a company. If a company decides to build an OpenBSD AMI and support it, it's the company choice alone. The project has no such goals. This is of course not limited to a company, an individual or a group can do

If this fork makes OpenSSL developers be more responsive to patch fixes and have them improve their documentation it's a win for OpenSSL and their users at large. OpenBSD is already reaping the benefits from a better TSL implementation

The primary goal of LibreSSL is to fix the OpenSSL codebase for OpenBSD. If other communities like the changes there could be a portable versions as alluded by the LibreSSL web site. Think OpenSSH -> OpenSSH-portable.
