I disagree.  I'd say that OpenBSD and FreeBSD put security in exactly
the same place -- at the top of the list.

I think the distinction to draw is that FreeBSD has a longer (albeit
unwritten) list of project goals, with the effect that a smaller
proportion of the development being done on FreeBSD is security-related;
this may make it look like we care less about security, but it's really
just a sign that FreeBSD is a larger project.
