+
+The OpenStack on FreeBSD project aims to bring OpenStack cloud infrastructure to the FreeBSD operating system, using FreeBSD's special features while keeping it compatible with OpenStack.
+
+In the third quarter of 2024, we continued working on several important tasks.
+Our work on porting OpenStack Ironic is still ongoing, with tests now running on arm64 servers.
+In this setup, the service node is amd64, and the provisioning node is arm64.
+This helps us explore more options for running mixed environments in OpenStack on FreeBSD.
+
+In August, we gave link:https://coscup.org/2024/en/session/CKQC9P[a presentation at COSCUP 2024] to share the project's progress and our experiences.
+This helped us get more attention and interest from people in the community.
+
+We also updated some of the OpenStack components, like Keystone, Glance, and Placement, from FreeBSD 14.0-STABLE to FreeBSD 15.0-CURRENT.
+This update helps us keep up with the latest changes in FreeBSD, making the project run better.
+
+Another notable item was testing the link:https://cgit.FreeBSD.org/src/commit/?id=1f903953fbf8615bb611db059417177f6cee07bd[bhyve serial console over TCP patch] and using it in the OpenStack workflow.
+This brings us closer to stopping the use of the custom socat-manager solution and moving to a built-in serial console solution.
+
+Although we are still planning to turn the OpenStack manual installation process into FreeBSD ports, there has not been much progress yet.
+We hope to work more on this in the next few months.
+Existing work can be found in the link:https://github.com/openstack-on-freebsd/openstack[openstack repository].
