Enlightenment desktop is a low on resources desktop environment without sacrificing on visuals. NetBSD support for this BSD-licensed desktop has been left a few years behind. The aim of this project is to port the newest version of the desktop to pkgsrc and commit upstream portability fixes when necessary to ease future versions updates for NetBSD.

Like the Spanish Inquisition, nobody expected the internet. Its earliest appearance (as ARPANET) took place in the same year—1969—as the comedy troupe behind the Spanish Inquisition quip, Monty Python. But during its first decade, the internet was treated as a convenience for file-sharing and a couple other applications; few observers anticipated how it would alter modern life until decades later. The major institution that brought computers into the internet age was the University of California at Berkeley, which created a version of Unix that they called the Berkeley Software Distribution and is now known as BSD.

The NetBSD Foundation’s 2026 AGM covers progress on NetBSD 11.0 (now at RC5), the CVS-to-Git/Mercurial migration, and infrastructure challenges like LLM scraping and hardware aging. Highlights include five Google Summer of Code projects, CNA onboarding for security advisories, and plans to streamline release cycles. The full IRC log details team updates from core, admins, releng, and security.
