Salt Project Announces the Open Sourcing of Several SaltStack Native Minions

July 12, 2022 - Chunga

Salt Project is happy to announce the open sourcing of several SaltStack native minions to the Salt Project.  We will continue to support these and all our other native minions for our enterprise customers using SaltStack Config and SaltStack SecOps. Salt has always been a strong, passionate community of contributors and we believe it is best for the project, our community, and users that these be handed over to the community for the next phase of development. 
 
Native minions: 
AIX 
Arista 
Juniper 
Solaris 

and
Raspberry Pi 

After Saltproject release v3005 we'll no longer build these packages but will provide open sources project links in an updated announcement later.
