Key Discussion Points
- Provenpackager Policy (#3687): An announcement text to reaffirm the
policy bounds for provenpackagers was finalized and approved. The
text reminds provenpackagers to use their access responsibly and act
as examples for the community.
- Vulnerable NetworkManager Plugins (#3693): Due to security
vulnerabilities in NetworkManager-{vpnc,fortisslvpn}, the committee
discussed how to inform users on stable releases (F43, F44). The
primary plan is to publish a Fedora Magazine article.
- Atomic Desktops: A proposal to remove the vulnerable NetworkManager
plugins from the base layer of Atomic installs in F44 was
discussed. A concern was raised about the potential for breaking
networking on systems with existing configurations, so further
testing is needed before this action is taken.
- FESCo Council Representative: Members were reminded to review and
vote on a proposal in ticket #3613 that aims to clarify the role and
voting process for the FESCo representative on the Fedora Council.
- Meeting Agenda & Change Proposals: There was a brief discussion
about the timing of System-Wide Change proposal announcements, with
a suggestion to send them on Mondays to allow more review time
before the Tuesday FESCo meeting.
- Action Items:
Michel Lind (salimma): Will chair the next FESCo meeting.
Michel Lind (salimma): Volunteered to help with the libical Change if a
shepherd is needed.
Kevin Fenzi (nirik): Will send the approved announcement regarding
provenpackager policy bounds to the devel-announce mailing list.
Kevin Fenzi (nirik): Will personally contact the packager whose actions
prompted the provenpackager policy discussion.
Volunteer Needed: A volunteer is needed to write the Fedora Magazine article
about the vulnerable NetworkManager-{vpnc,fortisslvpn} packages. Coordination
will happen in ticket #3693.
All FESCo Members: Were asked to vote on ticket #3689.
