Sourceware relies on cooperation among a broad diversity of core
toolchain and developer tool projects, hackers, organizations, ideas,
and communication styles. The monthly Sourceware Open Office meetings
are one way of coming together as a community and discuss our shared
development infrastructure. For other ways to participate see
https://sourceware.org/mission.html#organization

- Discussion topics:

  - Isolation, Quality of Service and banning agressive spiders

    Last month we isolated more services using resource control units
    so different services cannot starve out each other. There are also
    quality of service settings for httpd to limit (and serialize) the
    resources agressive spiders can use (we are seeing more and more
    spiders that ignore robots.txt and use botnets to concurrently
    access as many resources as possible). We also try to block these
    spiders (though fail2ban when triggered by these qos
    settings). But we don't want to accidentially ban regular
    developers. Please let us know if we didn't get the balance
    right. Or if you have ideas to better block these agressive
    spiders.

  - builder.sourceware.org buildbot CI

    Thanks to RISC-V International and SOPHGO we got a Milk-V Pioneer
    Box. It has 64 cores and 128GB memory, but single core performance
    isn't very fast. We are currently running gcc bootstrap plus
    checks on it. We already reduced the build time from ~10 hours to
    ~5 hours. If we can save a little bit more time we can add CI for
    other projects.

  - Cybersecurity "regulations" FAQ

    We are working on a Cybersecurity FAQ. Please ask any questions
    you might have and we'll try to answer what impact some of these
    "regulations" might have on the infrastructure services and
    possible project policies.

    Specifically what impact the EU Cyber Resilience Act (EU CRA) and
    the US Improving the Nation's Cybersecurity (Executive Order
    14028) have. And the ideas behind Zero Trust Architecture (NIST SP
    800-207), Secure Software Development Framework (SSDF, NIST SP
    800-218), Software Supply Chain Security and CRA compliance that
    projects might want to follow. And how Sourceware has prepared and
    can help.

We used to have both a BBB meeting room and an irc channel
discussion. But that became a little confusing. So for some previous
meetings we used irc exclusively. But this time we'll try to use the
BBB meeting room exclusively.
