+
+PkgBase.live, an unofficial repository for the FreeBSD link:https://wiki.freebsd.org/PkgBase[PkgBase project], is back alive.
+
+As a service, PkgBase.live was inspired by link:https://up.bsd.lv/[], which provided man:freebsd-update[8] for STABLE and CURRENT branches.
+up.bsd.live itself has gone on hiatus, so it was all the more reason to bring back PkgBase.live.
+
+Right now, we provide builds for:
+
+- FreeBSD 13.2-RELEASE
+- FreeBSD 13-STABLE
+- FreeBSD 14-CURRENT
+
+each for the following platforms:
+
+- amd64
+- aarch64
+- armv7
+- i386
+
+You may notice that RISCv64 is gone for now.
+
+The hardware is a powerful VPS in Vultr.
+The server and the jails running build jobs and serving packages are "self-hosting", meaning they were installed and are kept up-to-date with PkgBase.
+
+Because we have not figured out yet how to configure Vultr's IPv6 in FreeBSD jails, PkgBase.live is not available over IPv6 for now.
+If you have experience with that, please contact us!
+
+Along with users and testers, we still link:https://alpha.pkgbase.live/howto/howdo.html[highly encourage copy-cats].
+
+Hardware for PkgBase is kindly sponsored by a member of the FreeBSD community.
