Announcements

This is the first release by the new development team since the repository was moved under the FreeBSD GitHub organization.

The repository has been moved under the FreeBSD GitHub organization due to years of inactivity by the original author, Matt Churchyard. This move is intended to ensure continued development and maintenance, and to keep vm-bhyve a useful tool. We sincerely thank him for creating such a useful and valuable tool. He will be welcomed back to the development team if he returns.

    • Switch to routes from deprecated gateway[46]

Miscellaneous changes

  • Convert license notices to SPDX-License-Identifier
  • Switch to ISO 8601 timestamps as provided by date(1) to make outputs such as logs consistently sortable
  • Improved documentation and man pages
