Evolving Linux Foundation Project Management in Response to Upcoming EU Regulation
summary
Linux Foundation Europe commits to unify practices and tooling across 800+ projects so manufacturers can meet Cyber Resilience Act deadlines: vulnerability reporting starts in about 21 months and full obligations in roughly three years. Plans include formalizing community specs via the joint development foundation, updating SPDX/OpenSSF guidance, running a member implementation group, and publishing a research report in January that maps current gaps to concrete steps like providing SBOMs and voluntary attestation programs.
