+
+Samba provides secure, stable and fast file and print services for all clients using the SMB/CIFS protocol.
+It is an important component to seamlessly integrate FreeBSD/Linux/Unix Servers and Desktops into Active Directory environments.
+It can function both as a domain controller or as a regular domain member.
+
+The new FreeBSD Samba Team was created to better coordinate maintenance efforts of the Samba ports and its dependencies, in particular:
+
+* package:databases/ldb22[]
+* package:databases/ldb25[]
+* package:databases/ldb28[]
+* package:databases/tdb[]
+* package:devel/talloc[]
+* package:devel/tevent[]
+* package:net/samba416[]
+* package:net/samba419[]
+
+Notable changes in the last quarter include:
+
+* Creation of the FreeBSD Samba Team by mailto:timur@FreeBSD.org[Timur Bakeyev], mailto:kiwi@oav.net[Xavier Beaudouin], mailto:yasu@freebsd.org[Yasuhiro Kimura], mailto:0mp@FreeBSD.org[Mateusz Piotrowski], and mailto:mikael@FreeBSD.org[Mikaël Urankar].
+* Added `SAMBA_LDB_PORT` to [.filename]#Mk/Uses/samba.mk# (sponsored by Klara, Inc.)
+* Switching package:net/samba419[] to use external dependencies by default instead of vendoring (sponsored by Klara, Inc.)
+* Updating package:net/samba419[] to 4.19.8
+
+Currently, the FreeBSD Samba team is coordinating efforts in the following areas:
+
+* Switching the default version of Samba from 4.16 to 4.19 (link:https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=280769[Bugzilla PR#280769]).
+  * Current blockers are:
+    * Broken `fruit:posix_rename = yes` (link:https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=281360[Bugzilla PR#281360])
+    * Broken replication in Samba 4.19.8_1 (link:https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=281672[Bugzilla PR#281672])
+* Adding Samba 4.20 to the ports tree (link:https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=280533[Bugzilla PR#280533])
+* Adding Samba 4.21 to the ports tree (link:https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=281262[Bugzilla PR#281262])
