FreeBSD The Power to Serve

Pot is a jail management tool that also supports orchestration through Nomad.

During the last quarter, pot received a number of minor fixes but no new version has been released yet.

Potluck aims to be to FreeBSD and pot what Dockerhub is to Linux and Docker: a repository of pot flavours and complete container images for usage with pot and in many cases Nomad.

All Potluck images have been rebuilt to include the latest FreeBSD security advisories, a new Smokeping network latency monitoring image has been added, again a lot of work went into the Jitsi image, which unfortunately still seems to have some reliability issues.

As always, feedback and patches are welcome.
