New development policy: code generated by a large language model or similar technology (e.g. ChatGPT, GitHub Copilot) is presumed to be tainted (i.e. of unclear copyright, not fitting NetBSD's licensing goals) and cannot be committed to NetBSD.https://www.NetBSD.org/developers/commit-guidelines.html

Windows 11 or NetBSD 11... only one will never have ads in the default install.

@jspath55 @bentsukun tbh a lot of people are understandably tired of hearing toaster jokes for 20 years.

@evgandr @rl_dane @jaypatelani @cienmilojos This policy is from 2 years ago, it was added to the page on 2024-05-15.In that time, no permission has been granted. 😉

@rl_dane @RussSharek You can use the original. https://ex-vi.sourceforge.net/That Caldera license might be considered sketchy these days, I'm not sure.nvi2 was done by different people, iirc, so it's not a "direct successor" to nvi. Just another improved version.

@lambdacalculus The commit log seems to say that Postfix found a bug with some AI tool, not that they generated code with it, do you have information that suggests otherwise?

The last two weeks of changes have brought us many new sensor drivers for the Sun Ultra 45, and a new audio driver for the SGI Iris Indigo.Also, initial support for the PowerPC 440 core and 460EX SoC, used on ACube Systems embedded hardware.In less retro news, a ~1% performance for some ARM platforms. The -11 release is pending on security issues in OpenSSL, expat, and unbound, since our day keeps getting ruined.

@oxy You wanna see my testing hardware? Most of it looks like it was eaten by a goat, but especially the Sun Blade 150 which has turned a nice soupy mustard colour.
