Minix development has been abandoned, with no updates in almost 5 years
The pull requests list is better than the issues list.
This non-bug asks for a video on how to use OpenSSH:
* https://github.com/Stichting-MINIX-Research-Foundation/minix...
This one was fixed in 2017:
* https://github.com/Stichting-MINIX-Research-Foundation/minix...
This non-bug asks for where to start when learning:
* https://github.com/Stichting-MINIX-Research-Foundation/minix...
I've gone through quite a few of these at random, for this and another comment on this page, and this one is the first one that is even close to an outstanding bug, and it's only open because the pull request that fixed the problem back in 2020 hasn't been merged yet.

Minix from Scratch
The original is forever frozen in time as a memorial to Terry’s genius, but there is an (at least somewhat) actively maintained fork, which has added features of which Terry himself would not have approved - https://github.com/Zeal-Operating-System/ZealOS is the main one, which was last updated only a couple of months ago; Minix’s last commit appears to have been in 2018 - https://github.com/Stichting-MINIX-Research-Foundation/minix
But maybe that’s the answer for MINIX too - maybe one of the people who have authored all those unreviewed PRs might start a community-based fork. If all the activity moves to the fork, there is a chance the originators might officially bless it

MINIX From Scratch: Making it easy to run and compile MINIX
If I’m looking correctly , your repository repo only includes this part of the minix repo and not the other tools, correct?

Any good resources on making a C implementation of the Unix ls command?

Some remotely exploitable Linux kernel WiFi vulnerabilities
> Be the change you want to see in the world.
I have made dozens of commits to MINIX3, including a brand-new ISO 9660 file system implementation (https://github.com/Stichting-MINIX-Research-Foundation/minix...).
I have made more than a hundred commits to SerenityOS (https://github.com/SerenityOS/serenity/commits?author=boricj).
Just because I deplore the general state of security in mainstream operating systems doesn't mean that I demand that someone else does something about it for free.
I'm not paid to fix security bugs in the Linux kernel, do you expect me to fix these myself for free just because you want to? No one is entitled to my own free time spent hacking on random stuff.

When will MINIX 4 came out?
Not a lot of activity on the github. Minix

30 years ago....on this day.....this is how Linux started. Rest is history! Happy bday #linux
It is practically abandoned, since at least 2017. The minix3 group is somewhat active, but it is mostly from students asking questions. The git repo is still up, and there is a GitHub with slow, but not stopped activity.

FreeBSD 14.0 Delivering Great Performance Uplift
Lots of great work by many people. But I bet this guy and his optimizations to the vfs and locking has made a significant impact.

ZFS 2.2.1: Block Cloning disabled due to data corruption
and then there were deep concerns about the stability of same, so vfs.zfs.bclone_enabled = 0 was left in-place

FreeBSD 14.0-Release Announcement
Well there are some examples:
https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd-src/tree/main/share/examp...
But yeah that pf.conf could be expanded allot, but there are many source to cobble a conf together. My conf is massive but 99.9% commented out so i have my "template" for nearly everything, from mail to web to blacklistd etc.

Git cherry-pick and revert use 3-way merge
The BSD version is sort of very recent, for what it's worth -- FreeBSD imported a not fully functional version in 2017 and has seen more work on it in 2022: https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd-src/commits/main/usr.bin/... , but the default version shipped is still GNU diff3: https://man.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=diff3&apropos=0&se... .
