All our #git repository hosting VMs have now been updated in production and are running the #gameoftrees web server gotwebd.

See here for how to configure the web server in gotsys.conf: gameoftrees.org/gotsys.conf.5.

The web server name to use in the configuration is your subdomain.gothub.org

Custom domains can be added on request (and you'll need to set up an A record).

For my company I have put together and support packages which cover tasks I have been doing via ad-hoc consulting gigs for years now. And I asked some freelancing friends from the OpenBSD community to share the work with me.

We support deployments of OpenBSD in server and firewall roles via yearly fixed-price contracts. All base system components can be supported.

From our existing client base we know for a fact that there are small and mid-sized businesses out there who run OpenBSD and would benefit from working with us. We want to find more of them.

I sure ain't @bsdtv but doing the numbers for a sponsor... our full camera/streamer package that cost around $5000 has been used at:

EuroBSDcon 2024
OpenZFS Summit 2024
BSDCan 2025
EuroBSDcon 2025
OpenZFS Summit 2025

That's $1000 per event and dropping with every use! (Not everyone understands that concept and we're doing our best to explain it.)

Our second package and a half have been used at:

BSDCan 2025
EuroBSDcon 2025

These two events were our first ALL-ATEM (mixer/streamer) events which makes for higher-quality results and an easier experience for the volunteer operators.

Ping me if you want help keep A/V costs down through strategic purchases!

Recovering and reminiscing on an incredible 2025 in Zagreb, Croatia! 🇭🇷 :flan_sad:

What a week! Over 220 attendees, 48 brilliant speakers, and 16 amazing sponsors came together to celebrate all things . The energy was , deep dives into tech, inspiring talks, and those hallway conversations that spark new ideas and collaborations.

Huge shoutout to the video crew who made sure every moment was captured, and to everyone who traveled near and far to be part of this vibrant community. Whether it was hacking, learning, or just geeking out over , the connections made here are what make this event so special.

Zagreb, and the incredible Organizing Committee, you were the perfect host! Already counting down to the next one in Brussels! 🇧🇪

Did you attend? What was your highlight? 👇

We are collecting as much as possible on: 2025.eurobsdcon.org/wrapup.htm
