6.  Introducing dhcpleased(8)
    Now enabled by default on OpenBSD -current is dhcpleased (8), a dynamic host configuration protocol daemon written by florian@ (Florian Obser), who spoke with us about his work: I suppose this is either the KAME project 's fault, or if we don't want to go that far back, Theo's fault.

13.  September 30th, 2021 syspatches: some assembly might be required
    Did you just run syspatch(8) and see it fail? Here's the reason: one of the two root certificates behind the (excellent) Let's Encrypt CA service has expired. A bug in (the "legacy" verifier of) LibreSSL also contributed. The syspatches (for OpenBSD 6.8, 032, for OpenBSD 6.9, 018) mitigate the unfortunate situation. However, your syspatch may fail if your local mirror uses a Let's Encrypt ...

20.  wiconfig - simplifies the configuration of wireless interfaces
    Hi Matthias--appreciate you peeking at the script and exposing the issue. For what it's worth, the script doesn't automatically connect to the strongest network it finds until you configure a specific network, so you'd have to tell it to connect to `rm /etc/wiconfig`, which is akin to someone typing ifconfig iwi0 nwid "`rm /etc/wiconfig`".
