    Why are they still using CVS? And not HTTPS?

    I know that both topics have been discussed on the OpenBSD `misc
    mailing list (probably more than once) but this was some time ago
    and I did not pay much attention. If you search the list archive
    you should be able to find some answers.

    I think the whole point of the BSDs is to be retro.

    If they wanted to be modern, they'd be Linux.

    In Usenet, as in life, as you go through it, you will run into lots of nonsense.
    Each time, you will have to decide from the following courses of action:
    1) Argue with it or 2) Ignore it.
    Experience shows that the later course is usually the best.
