I had to write that FGA in part because *everyone* forgot about the SAF. (-:
#Illumos #OmniOS #SmartOS #OpenIndiana #Tribblix #ServiceAccessFacility
Service management, as I mentioned, began as the domain of the much older Service Access Facility, which comes from #Unix S5R4 in 1988.
The #Illumos manual page for the sacadm command (for one) is dated 1992, and the Illumos #ServiceAccessFacility dates back to the days of #Solaris 2.
The use of sacadm/pmadm/ttyadm/nlsadmin in Illumos et al. is the same now as it was when Æleen Frisch wrote about them for Solaris 2 in xyr book in 1995.
@JdeBP @Radio_Azureus SMF was introduced in Solaris 10 in 2005 - while it still supports SVR4 init scripts from the 1980’s, they are deprecated.
#illumos also has https://illumos.org/man/8/ipadm from 2010-ish as a replacement for ifconfig, though ifconfig is also still supported.
@bms48 DTrace integration may encourage interest from the #illumos given that we have exchanged many key technologies.
In its current form, @bsdfund is a proposal-generating strategy that, with formal goals and milestones in place, passes around the hat. This has suited a handful of small projects well but somehow my fundraising efforts go primarily to @bsdcan and @openzfs
How “large”* a project do you estimate this to be?
* Not the optimal software metric.

Auch diesen Monat reden wir kommenden Dienstag (17.03.) bei der #FRAOSUG wieder online über alles Mögliche und Unmögliche zu #illumos, #OmniOS, #SmartOS und #OpenIndiana. Und außerdem noch über alles mögliche andere unix-affine, was uns so einfällt. Wer mit-nerden will, ist herzlich willkommen und findet sich gegen 19 Uhr auf dem Senfcall-BBB-Server ein: https://public.senfcall.de/FRAOSUG20260317
#illumos on #ARM64 under #bhyve progress!
https://github.com/richlowe/arm64-gate/issues/60
They’ve addressed a blocker on the illumos side but #FreeBSD needs some attention.
I’ll take a look but feel free to do the same if this interests you.

@mrmasterkeyboard @xinit the #RightToFork is elemental to #FLOSS and necessary for #OpenSource to exist.
- As much as I'm not a fan of seemingly abandoned forks of my works, I am not in the position to restrict or ban those.
- And people OFC have their right to make a #fork whenever they want to do so!
We ain't criticizing corporations that maintain outdated inhouse forks out of principle, and I think that #evi isn't a "fork for the sake of forking" but actually does things different and apparenty "irreconcileable" to the mainline Project.
- This is how #Innovation is born.
- See #NetBSD, #OpenBSD, #DragonflyBSD, #OpenZFS, #Illumos, #Waterfox, #TorBrowser, …
Nit to mention EVERYTHING IS "#POLITICAL" - including "apoliticalness"!
