The ad banners are displayed in a weighted random manner by an ad
serving program.  While I was proofing the article, I saw the NetBSD
"All Your Platform" ad on the page, which was just as funny as ever.
(In fact, I put that particular banner into the rotation simply
because even to this day I start giggling whenever I see the "How Are
You Gentlemen" come up.)  I am sorry for the insensitivity of our ad
server for displaying an OpenBSD advertisement alongside the NetBSD
article.  As you know we provide, gratis, banners linking to all the
BSD projects.  Each BSD's banners have an equal percentage chance of
being shown, and that's the one that happened to pop up in your case.

You owe the Oracle some Achillea millefolium.
