OpenMandriva's accused repo wrecker says it wasn't #sabotage – it was a message
source: theregister.com/os-platforms/2…
He acknowledged deleting the #GNOME and #COSMIC repositories from #GitHub, removing the corresponding packages from the Cooker #development branch, and publishing a package that obsoleted them. But he said the changes were intended as a protest after #maintainers removed #OneDev #configuration files from multiple #repositories without consulting him, effectively disabling work he had been doing on a new build and mirroring #infrastructure.

The cost reality: $200/month = ~$15k/month at team scale. That bill comes due.

The #maintainathon is underway at #UNOpenSourceWeek 2026 in New York. For the second year, the Sovereign Tech Agency and the UN Office for Digital and Emerging Technologies are convening #opensource #maintainers and institutional actors to work on the challenge of maintaining increasingly complex critical digital systems.

For the second year, we are bringing a delegation of #OpenSource #maintainers to #UNOpenSourceWeek in New York.
The experts who actually build and maintain critical digital infrastructure are rarely represented in the international conversations about how that infrastructure is sustained and maintained.
This delegation will change that: bringing practitioner perspectives to our second annual #maintainathon and the full week of events, panels, and exchanges. https://www.sovereign.tech/news/un-open-source-week-2026-maintainer-delegation

Quiet shoutout to the people who keep #Postgres running.
The reviewers catching the edge case. The maintainers of the extension you've used in production for years and never thanked. The folks answering on the mailing list at 11pm so the next person searching that error finds the answer. The ones keeping the docs honest.
If you've got a minute today: send a thank-you, star a repo, reply to a thread.
The ecosystem runs on this. So does #pgEdge. -

Dumb Ways for an Open Source Project to Die
A good chunk of the most-depended-on open source packages are dead, and there are a lot of different ways for a project to end up that way.

I was kinda burnt-out at the end of last year. I felt like there's so much to do, yet too little to to tackle anything.
For the past two months, I've been experimenting with the "1% rule": instead of few heavy lifts, I did smaller things but like every day. -

Final reminder: The deadline for applications to join the #SovereignTechStandards network is Tuesday, 19 May 2026, at 23:59 CEST.
Open standards shape the digital infrastructure we all rely on. But standards are only as good as the expertise behind them.

#OpenSource used to mean trusting skilled developers to build and maintain good #software so others did not need to learn every language, tool, or best practice themselves.
Now, #SupplyChainAttack and #AISlop have made many projects harder to trust.
Too much software is rushed, poorly understood, or built for hype instead of quality.
#Developers now spend more time checking code, #dependencies, and #maintainers instead of simply building software.
#AI was supposed to reduce cognitive load😒
