The FreeBSD Enterprise Working Group is seeking community input to help inform its priorities going forward.

Since 2023, the Working Group has focused on identifying and addressing gaps that impact enterprise adoption of FreeBSD, with several key workstreams already completed.

If you’re an enterprise user of FreeBSD, consider taking this short survey and sharing your perspective:

Vandaag hebben we https://code.overheid.nl gelanceerd: hét overheidsbrede codeplatform 🥳🥳

Code.overheid.nl is een pilot waarin we @forgejo gaan beproeven; een open source en soeverein alternatief voor Github/Gitlab.

Dit is een initiatief van het @BZKopensource , in samenwerking met onze vrienden van DAWO (SSC-ICT), @opensource , @developer , en een aantal deelnemende overheidsorgs.🤝

@tomootes van developer.overheid schreef er een mooi stuk over: https://developer.overheid.nl/blog/2026/04/24/we-gaan-samen-code-overheid-bouwen

Sometimes things move fast. Not that long ago, dutch authorities reached out to @forgejo to discuss using their solution for a new official site to collect and distribute open source. Well. The pilot has started. Today you can visit https://code.overheid.nl/explore/repos and become part of the move towards More Open and More Digital Sovereignty! Congrats to all involved! @BZKopensource

Today we launched https://code.overheid.nl: the NL government-wide code platform 🥳🥳

Code.overheid.nl is a pilot in which we are going to test @forgejo; an open source and sovereign alternative to GitHub/GitLab.

This is an initiative of @BZKopensource, in collaboration with our friends from team DAWO (SSC-ICT), @opensource , @developer , and a number of participating government orgs. 🤝

@tomootes from developer.overheid wrote a nice piece about it: https://developer.overheid.nl/blog/2026/04/24/we-gaan-samen-code-overheid-bouwen
