✨ New blog post: "STF Milestone 3: Release verification and automation"

A major goal of the @sovtechfund is to help projects become more sustainable and decrease their truck factor. For #JUnit, one activity in desperate need of improvement in this area was performing a release.

When I was a consultant, I chose to get rusty with technologies rather than with team skills — and I'd choose the same a million more times.

All right, pkgsrc 2025Q1 has just been announced on the mailing lists.

It's not even on pkgsrc.org yet! 😉

#pkgsrc #NetBSD

(Before that, I was nervous I wouldn't get it done before the old instance goes offline in a few days: https://octodon.social/@CobaltVelvet/112897672123037837)

We usually assume it also means you know how to do X. Often true, but not always.

Projects that by design cannot promptly demonstrate return (or no return) on investment are extra risky.

Saying these things out loud does not suffice to indemnify us, or me.

When negative feedback that’s vague and unactionable comes from someone with power-over, it’s negligent, irresponsible, and destructive.
