I'm happy to announce the 19th release of the #OpenBSD #webzine

OpenBSD webzine issue #19

Webzine created by volunteers who are passionate about the OpenBSD project development.

Today's last setting (almost no change) and shutting down...

At Open Source Conference 2026 Nagoya, held on May 23, I will be demonstrating a working OMRON LUNA-88K2 workstation and OpenBSD/luna88k running on it!

I have finished up and merged the sha256 network support work which was started by @op some time ago.

Which means the next release of #GameOfTrees will support cloning, fetching, and sending changes from/to SHA256-capable #Git servers (such as @forgejo).

Server-side support will need more work still so this won't immediately allow @gothub to host SHA256 repositories. But we also want to get that working eventually.

Happy hacking 

I've done a lot of OS upgrades in my life... and I have to say, OpenBSD does it better than any I've ever seen...

Literally just `doas sysupgrade` and bam, you have an updated system 5 mins later. The post-upgrade steps are unsurprisingly straightforward for most systems (https://www.openbsd.org/faq/upgrade79.html).

If you read this week's #OpenBSD story, you will.
