Finished setting up a staging environment for this server, it runs OpenBSD again, as planned. Now I'll just have to wait for OpenBSD 6.7, so I can do one last test: Does sysupgrade(8) run smooth enough? If it does, the main server will switch to OpenBSD as well. To manage it, I use [BundleWrap], which was written by a colleague of mine. It's not exactly "minimal" software, but much better than all the alternatives. And, of course, I'm 100% familiar with it, since we also use it at work and I've contributed to some tiny parts of it; for example, enhancements to OpenBSD package management. (And, sadly, also Kubernetes stuff. Oh, good lord, please forgive me.) [BundleWrap]: https://bundlewrap.org It's so funny. When you work with OpenBSD, there's the "no Google effect". You just don't google things. You intuitively look at the manpages, find the answer, and you're done. And even if you do use Google, you end up on www.openbsd.org anyway. This tells me two things: - Their documentation is good. Period. The manpages are tidy and well organized. If examples are provided, they are highly instructive. - The programs themselves have a good and clean design. Many programs have a clean and straight-forward configuration syntax. You don't have to write long documentation, if the thing you're documenting is easy to understand. There is so much to learn from this. It's one of the main reasons why I want to start using OpenBSD again.
