Hello, all!
In our latest exchange, on 16 Nov. 2021 at 08:00 [JST], I received this
from Nicolas Lagrand <nicolas.legr...@bulac.fr>:

We would not seriously consider any of the open BSD systems since Koha
is written to Debian and Ubuntu. We have heard good things about
OpenBSD. There's
no sense in tempting fate, so to speak, especially if there isn't a
full-time IT staff to dedicate so much time to it.
But we saw it and then found a Koha support page for OpenBSD, albeit
Koha 3, I think. It's just curiosity on our part.
Thanks for your comments.
