Do you have an abundance of 2.5" 300GB SAS hard drives? Could you spare 8 of them? Could you also ship them to Scotland?

I've got a Sun Enterprise T5120 for the #HamBSD project but no hard drives. I'd like to use this as a sparc64 build machine, and perhaps also other project related things.

Boosts welcome.

Fidèle au poste, on voit aujourd'hui la sortie d'OpenBSD 6.6 !

Cette version vient avec plusieurs nouvelles fonctionnalités, mais celle qui nous intéresse le plus est l'arrivée, et l'ajout à 6.5, de l'utilité sysupgrade(8), qui permet de faire une mise à jour automatisée.

Combiné à syspatch(8) et les nouveaux paquets binaires pour "stable", il n'a jamais été plus facile de garder son système #OpenBSD à jour.

I have just upgraded my #OpenBSD 6.4 systems to #OpenBSD 6.5 in preparation for the 6.6 release: smoother than ever.

It is amazing how, year after year, the upgrade process has been honed to the point that sysmerge has been reduced, for me, literally to dealing with /etc/mail/aliases and deleting a few files.

Frankly fantastic.

My most sincere gratitude to all involved: upgrading systems the other side of the world over flimsy sat links has become so much less stressful.

La communauté “Obsd4* - OpenBSD pour tous” annonce l’impérieuse nécessité de (sys)patcher OpenBSD !

Cette annonce est particulièrement importante car elle apporte un nouvel outil qui facilite la mise à niveau, soit vers release, soit vers snapshot : sysupgrade !

Dear wannabe #OpenBSD porters (and actual OpenBSD porters):

I just put my whole work-in-progress ports directory (a little more than 60 new ports) on GitHub: https://github.com/ibara/openbsd-ports-wip

You're free to take these ports, make yourself MAINTAINER, and submit them to ports@ (please email me first though).

This is your chance to experience what it's like to submit new ports and do that work, and become a port maintainer. And I benefit by clearing my backlog.

Feel free to boost, spread around, etc.

Just re-upping this offer: because being comfortable with git is a barrier to entry to many FS/OSS projects, and because I care deeply about lowering those barriers, I will tutor anyone who asks for help with git, and/or connect them with any mentor(s) they might prefer.

I'll do this while I put energy and work into making the tool more approachable, and into making better tools and learning paths.

Boosts gratefully appreciated.
