Markus,
That was the choice OpenBSD made. they reverted back to an older version
before the absurd '28 days' restriction.
FreeBSD and several other OS's have decided not to jeopardize their 3rd
party management systems with such an obnoxious license, and have
removed it completely.
Hope that helps,
