Harold Gutch
Harold has been using operating systems in the BSD family since 1997. He started with FreeBSD on x86 and soon used NetBSD on other architectures, most of which would not run anything modern other than NetBSD. In recent years he also runs NetBSD on more mainstream architectures (x86 and Arm). He joined The NetBSD Foundation as a NetBSD developer in 2021. More recently, he joined the EuroBSDCon Foundation board in 2025 as the NetBSD liaison.
Sysadmin at day, NetBSD hacker at night.
Session
The NetBSD Foundation is looking forward to organizing a NetBSD devsummit at AsiaBSDCon 2026.
The primary focus of this are NetBSD and pkgsrc developers, but others may join too.
The details of the summit are yet to be planned in detail, but overall the idea can be summarized as sharing knowledge about things in NetBSD and pkgsrc that are not (yet) known to many other developers and in general connecting NetBSD and pkgsrc developers. Some potential topics for the devsummit are PGP key signing, NetBSD 11, and knowledge sharing about personal development
environments.
A wiki page is available on the NetBSD wiki and the schedule will be kept up to date there: https://wiki.netbsd.org/summits/asiabsdcon_2026_netbsd_summit/
