Hi all,

After lots of discussions at some of our Open Office hours, at the
Cauldron, with other Software Freedom organizations and some of our
hardware and services providers we now have a Sourceware Cyber Security
FAQ explaining topics like the "US Improving the Nation's Cybersecurity
Executive Order 14028", "EU Cyber Resilience Act (EU CRA)" and "Secure
Software Development Framework (NIST SP 800-218)".

https://sourceware.org/cyber-security-faq.html

We would like to extend this with some recommended practices for
projects to adopt. Although it is clear that these regulations are
mainly aimed at commercial entities, who bear the brunt of these
requirements. We believe this is an opportunity for projects to get
more (corporate) contributions since these guidelines and requirements
strongly suggest/mandate to make all their work public and contribute
(security issues) back upstream. So any policies documenting how to
clearly report issues and documenting the contributing and release
practices should be helpful.

Please let us know if you have any questions or suggestions.

Cheers,

Mark Wielaard
