Ok. Could you give me the sources of these quotes? Or other reputable sources and papers who claim that the code quality of OpenBSD is high?

Code quality is hard to measure, but I think that any competent C programmer that reads the source code for OpenBSD will agree that the quality is above average.

OpenBSD is a fork of NetBSD, another project considered to have above average quality source code. Enough so that Spinellis based his book about code reading on the NetBSD source code.
