To:	FreeBSD Current <freebsd-current@⋯>, FreeBSD Hackers <freebsd-hackers@⋯>, FreeBSD Ports <freebsd-ports@⋯>

From the e-mail:

… phase 1 was limited to moving away from subversion and to git.

Now's the time for phase 2. The deferred items included better CI pipelines, better integration with popular hosting sites like github and gitlab, a look at the tools we have today and how they fit together, and a bunch of other items that were less well defined. …

This will be a collaborative effort between the developers and the user community that contributes patches to any part of FreeBSD (the base, ports and docs). If you are interested in participating, please drop me a line. We'll have a core office hours to talk about this soon, and I'd like to start discussions with those that are interested before hand, as well as invite people to participate in the office hours. After that, we'll have a kick off meeting that's open to everybody who can respectfully contribute.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Warner

If you have any questions that you would like to be addressed you can also send the questions to core at freebsd.org beforehand. …
