Last Saturday, Kairos maintainers @dkarakasilis, @mrls and William Rizzo met together with Kamaji maintainer Dario Trachitella during FOSDEM 2026.

This isn’t a one-off interaction. Last year, we collaborated at Cloud Native Days Italy, running a hands-on workshop on hosted control planes with immutable worker nodes.

These kinds of long-term maintainer relationships are how ideas mature into production-ready systems, across projects, not in isolation.
