Documentation. Some people love it, some hate it. But many people need it. Community is working on the documentation. The new documentation can be found at https://docs.openvoxproject.org and is based on Puppet Version 5.4 as this was the last documentation with free license.

If you encounter any issues, please open an issue at https://github.com/openvoxproject/openvox-docs/issues.

Besides this the community is looking for people to collaborate on good documentation.

✔️ In the past months we reworked the #VoxPupuli module pipelines to be more secure and to be hardened against supply chain attacks.

✔️ We enhanced the Vox Pupuli module pipelines to test specific openvox-agent package versions. This enables us to test openvox-agent changes/releases, on over 150 real modules, with acceptance tests, before we publish it to our users.

#FreeBSD ports for the legacy Open Source #Puppet are now DEPRECATED. They will be removed from the ports tree in a few months.

If your rely on these ports, you are advised to switch to the #OpenVox ports, maintained by the #VoxPupuli folks 😃.
