Feb 1, 2026

February 2026 (2026-02) monthly summary for mozilla/sccache. Focused on delivering FreeBSD 15.0 CI and documentation support to ensure compatibility with the latest FreeBSD release, improving platform coverage and release confidence.

June 2025 monthly summary for bazelbuild/bazel focused on BSD cross-platform stabilization and early validation of a cross-OS networking metrics path. Delivered a targeted reliability improvement for FreeBSD builds by introducing a stub implementation of getNetIoCountersNative in unix_jni_bsd.cc. The temporary stub prevents UnsatisfiedLinkError and preserves build/test continuity while enabling ongoing work toward a full, production-ready implementation. This aligns with ongoing cross-OS compatibility efforts and reduces user-facing build-time errors during BSD usage.
