About a day from PR submission, 2-3 iterations of review-improvement, to integration in a new release.
I really enjoy when FLOSS collaboration works so well! 💪
(To be fair, it looks like both protagonists live in about the same timezones and had availability these days; it's also a matter of timed luck).

Thanks @ronix for your post on setting up a Hashicorp vault, this helped me setup #openbao. Also thank you @cipherboy for working on OpenBao.
Here’s my setup:
https://cloudvox.at/a/self-hosted-openbao-hashicorp-vault-fork/
@endocrimes #OpenBao has an ever improving Kubernetes story. With declarative init + auto-unseal it became a breeze to run on declarative environments like k8s, nixos, etc.
🔐 OpenBao on Servala brings open-source, enterprise-grade secrets management without licensing lock-in - supported by our friends at bespinian.
Nomad authentication with OpenBao
I started to use OpenBao as OpenID connect provider to authenticate my Nomad home lab.
Happy to read the latest #OpenBao Roadmap updat. Great things to come!
Done a new release of `terraform-provider-openwrt` that allows one to deal with an openwrt router with IAC.
https://github.com/Foxboron/terraform-provider-openwrt/releases/tag/v0.1.0
Has new resources to install packages, write *normal* files and enable services.
I’m happy to support with the #Openbao booth here at #OpenSourceSummit. Interested in a true OSS secret management solution? Looking forward hearing your thoughts and requirements!
We've supported .env integration for managing secrets, but it has several issues:
Apps are disconnected from their secrets - applications lack a clear contract about which secrets they need
Parsing .env is unclear - comments, multiline values, and special characters all have ambiguous behavior across different parsers
Password manager integration is difficult - requiring manual copy-paste or template workarounds
Vendor lock-in - applications use custom parsing logic, making it hard to switch providers
No encryption - .env files are stored as plain text, vulnerable to accidental commits or unauthorized access
solutions like dotenvx to encrypt .env files or sops for general secret encryption, these bring new challenges:
Single key management - requires distributing and managing a master key
Trust requirements - everyone with the key can decrypt all secrets
Rotation complexity - departing team members require key rotation and re-encrypting all secrets
Larger teams often adopt solutions like #OpenBao (the open source fork of #HashiCorp Vault), requiring significant infrastructure and operational overhead. Smaller teams face a gap between simple .env files and complex enterprise solution
What if instead of choosing one tool, we declared secrets uniformly and let each environment use its best provider?

OpenBao: немного enterprise'ных возможностей при управлении секретами
С момента смены лицензирования Hashicorp Vault утекло много времени и с момента появления проекта OpenBao, мы регулярно следили за его судьбой. Несколько дней назад завезли enterprise-функционал, который доступен безвозмездно. И хотелось бы поделиться этой информацией с сообществом Съесть еще этих мягких булок

Welcome to the OpenSSF family, OpenBao Project! 🎉
#OpenBao is a new sandbox project focused on secure secrets and encryption management—originally forked from Vault & now evolving to serve open source communities even better.
Read the blog: https://openssf.org/blog/2025/06/17/openbao-joins-the-openssf-to-advance-secure-secrets-management-in-open-source/
🚀🎉 Hold the presses! #OpenBao adds "Namespaces" to its secret manager, enabling isolated environments for your secrets. 🤔 Finally, a solution to the problem of "Where did I put my secrets again?" 😅 Thanks, OpenBao, for making secret management feel like a game of hide-and-seek with a twist! 🙄🔍
