We've been reading about this Hugging Face exploit with interest because the attack vector included #JRuby. Thanks to our comprehensive release notes, it's easy to see that we patched the vulnerability with #OpenVox 8.27.0 back in May. docs.openvoxproject.org/openvox/late...

#OpenSource #community is such a powerful thing. Yesterday when we published the #OpenVox 9.0 #beta, the signing pipeline failed for the Windows packages. It turned out to be an upstream problem with jsign, and overnight someone else found and fixed the problem.
Sponsor the only event this year focused on PDX DevOps & open source! Our theme is “The Future of DevOps." We’re focused on the road ahead: scaling Kubernetes across multiple clouds, refactoring automation with AI agents, charting careers through major changes, & more! devopsdays.org/events/2026-...
We had a very special guest at #VoxConf today. @luke.kanies.com, the original #Puppet author and founder of PuppetLabs, spent some time with us at dinner last night and then shared some perspectives of this amazing journey -- from Blink to Puppet, and now #OpenVox.
Just in time for #VoxConf, we'd like to announce the general availability of the #OpenVox 9.0 beta release! This contains major platform updates like Ruby 4, Java 25, JRuby 10, PostgreSQL 17/18, and more. As a beta, we don't recommend this on production systems yet. voxpupuli.org/blog/2026/07...

May The Source Be With You
The roots of the OpenVox community are open source, and we’ve built our company and our products on that foundation. On this fine Star Wars Day I thought it would be a good time to talk a bit about why that’s important to us and why we regard the corporate rug-pull as such a breach of trust.
