We open-source maintainers are not the only ones drowning in AI & security reports.

GitHub used to assign CVEs in 2–3 days. Now it takes two weeks. I had to play that game quite a few times lately - seems they have an issue too.

Did you know:
CVE IDs start at 4 digits with CVE-YYYY-NNNN - quite optimistic 😎 And now we're already past CVE-2026-52828 and it's only June.

Here is how I handle security issues for Kimai: https://www.kimai.org/documentation/security.html

Ideas for improvements are welcome.

It's time again for a seasonal THANK YOU to the people behind @symfony & @doctrine

A customer approached me to update his Kimai:

$ bin/console
Symfony 4.1.6
Kimai 2 - 0.6 dev

This release was installed in Nov. 2018.

Honestly: I expected troubles. But a simple "git fetch & composer install & bin/console kimai:update" later the system was running again.

I celebrate 🎉 this fantastic artwork (tooling and Frameworks) in our PHP landscape.

If you are running a #SaaS, you need a status page.

I care deeply about open-source, self-hostable tools (because sovereignty and security) and the one I can totally recommend is Uptime Kuma.

Migrating the #Kimai monitoring infrastructure to #UptimeKuma was simple. The tool is powerful.

Give it a try: https://github.com/louislam/uptime-kuma

Has anyone noticed that Tidelift donation links are redirected to a commercial page about SonarQube 🤯

The news seems to be "Sonar acquired Tidelift" and now all their funding links (check "composer fund") are being redirected.

Take this one for example from @naderman https://tidelift.com/funding/github/packagist/composer/composer

Do the package authors know that their Tidelift links are pointing to Sonar ads now?

Too many emails?
Support requests are piling up?
Chaos in your inbox?

Yes, that's me.

This weekend I finally took the time and installed Zammad. Another open-source success story from 🇪🇺

Let's see if it helps finding a better flow.

Sometimes you don't need a beach, if you can relax like this in your home country.

That cabin is the perfect place to get away from online/work for a few days.

Thanks 🇦🇹 for offering such beautiful places.

Is someone here using #Gumroad? I am selling plugins for my time-tracker #Kimai (#PHP #Symfony based) there and they just announced a dramatic change in their fee structure. For me that will be a raise from 5% to 13%.

Someone around having the same issue? I am looking for a EU based platform which acts as merchant of record and offers similar features (selling subscriptions and one-time purchases).
