+PkgBase.live _was_ an unofficial repository for the FreeBSD link:https://wiki.freebsd.org/PkgBase[PkgBase project].
+As a service, PkgBase.live was inspired by link:https://up.bsd.lv/[], which provides man:freebsd-update[8] for STABLE and CURRENT branches.
+
+Hardware for PkgBase was kindly sponsored by a member of the FreeBSD community.
+However, as life and projects moved on, they had to decommission the hardware, giving me three months' notice.
+In that time, my own life was rather turbulent after a recent move to a different country so I haven't been able to find a replacement.
+
+For the time being, PkgBase.live is dead.
+
+The website, and with it the link:https://codeberg.org/pkgbase/website/src/branch/main/howto/howdo.md[How Did She Do it?!] are still available in link:https://codeberg.org/pkgbase/website[Git].
+I highly encourage copy-cats.
+
+I will also happily accept a new hardware sponsor!
+
+Please note that I _have_ contacted the FreeBSD Project, and they _are_ working on integrating PkgBase into release engineering.
+However, they are not yet ready, they also cannot "simply" take over PkgBase.live because it uses a completely different process.
