DragonFly 3.8, coming up
We’re due for the next release of DragonFly. I’ve posted the two-week warning to kernel@. As I noted in that post, please look at the list of issues for the release and see what you can close.

EuroBSDCon 2014 submissions deadline extended until June 2nd, 2014
Co-editor and writer of many words about OpenBSD, Peter Hansteen, who is also on the EuroBSDCon 2014 program committe, wrote in to tell us that the deadline for submissions to the EuroBSDCon 2014 conference has been extended until June 2nd 2014.
Michael W. Lucas, author of the books
SSH Mastery,
Sudo Mastery,
DNSSEC Mastery,
and
Absolute OpenBSD,
writes in to let us know that he'll be talking OpenBSD up on the interwebs:
I'll be doing a webcast on O'Reilly's community site called "Beyond Security: OpenBSD's Real Purpose." This will go out live on Tuesday, 27 May, 1PM EDT. I'll take questions at the end.A BUG’s Life | BSD Now 38
The talk will focus on OpenBSD as a pressure cooker to change the world. If only I had a really good example of this whole "pressure cooker" idea from, say, the last month or so, then the talk would feel really current and attract a lot of interest from the outside world.
If only, indeed!
We're back from BSDCan! This week on the show we'll be chatting with
Brian Callahan and Aaron Bieber about forming a local BSD users group.
We'll get to hear their experiences of running one and maybe encourage
some of you to start your own!
After that, we've got a tutorial on the basics of NetBSD's package manager, pkgsrc. Answers to your emails and the latest headlines, on BSD Now - the place to B.. SD.
