SFP#47: ILoveFS: Let’s meet our maintainers

SFP#47: ILoveFS: Let’s meet our maintainers Happy I Love Free Software Day! And with this we have a special Software Freedom Podcast episode to mark this special day with something nice. For our I Love Free Software Day podcast episode we have spoken with Lorenz Kästle from the monitoring plugins. Lorenz is part of the maintainers team that keep this core infrastructure, which is not a frontend software project, up and running. In this episode Bonnie and Lorenz discuss what nice benefits but also challenges come along with being a maintainer in your free time. Let us celebrate all contributors and maintainers of Free Software on the 14th of February and throughout the year! For the I Love Free Software Day 2026, we say a big thank you to all the amazing software maintainers out there. The FSFE's work aims at safeguarding Software Freedom.
