Title: Who maintains the OPNsense plugins repositories?

I'm just curious as they are always out of date, for example, ntopng.

Who is responsible for the package updates for plugins? Is this OPN sense directly or community?

Thanks

https://github.com/opnsense/plugins/blob/bc3495c5722a78489eb799a0dbb00607a9aee69b/net/ntopng/Makefile#L5

You can see the current maintainer in the Makefile of each plugin. They are most of the time community maintained, but not all of them. The plugin is only the system glue around a port.

The ones with higher tiers can be directly supported by OPNsense (Deciso).

https://docs.opnsense.org/support.html

The ports themselves (aka the binaries) are updated here:

https://github.com/opnsense/ports/blob/df1513956059fd9ffddeda1f5973a93f19d2cb6e/net/ntopng/Makefile#L2

That happens automatically most of the time by synching the ports with upstream FreeBSD ports. So that sync is maintained by OPNsense (I believe most of the time).
