FreeCORE and BSDnas emerge as TrueNAS Core successors on FreeBSD 15

Two new open-source NAS operating systems, FreeCORE and BSDnas, have emerged to continue the legacy of the cancelled TrueNAS Core. Both projects are based on the latest FreeBSD 15 codebase and aim to provide a stable, ZFS-integrated alternative for users who preferred TrueNAS Core over the Linux-based TrueNAS SCALE. FreeCORE, which appeared first, is an independent fork that has already migrated the TrueNAS Core web UI and security fixes to FreeBSD 15. BSDnas followed shortly after, also removing iXsystems dependencies and adapting the original TrueNAS Core code to FreeBSD 15. AI
