Hi Hugh, > A quick skim read: doesn’t apply to open source stuff, and > manufacturers can self certify… I haven't read Tim's links, I just plumped straight for https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyber_Resilience_Act as an overview. That suggests the exception isn't for by licence, e.g. open source, but instead by how commercial it is. And that's a difficult, subjective line to draw. The Civil Service may argue for ‘alignment’. -- Cheers, Ralph. -- Next meeting: Online, Jitsi, Tuesday, 2024-01-02 20:00 Check to whom you are replying Meetings, mailing list, IRC, ... http://dorset.lug.org.uk New thread, don't hijack: mailto:dorset@mailman.lug.org.uk
Re: [Dorset] Euro CRA act
A quick skim read: doesn’t apply to open source stuff, and manufacturers can self certify… So a paper exercise in essence, no different to self certification against the low voltage directive (for example)… Sent from my iPhone On Sat, 30 Dec 2023 at 21:59, Tim wrote: > I came across a statement released by Debian about the new impending > Euro CRA act.

[Dorset] Euro CRA act
I came across a statement released by Debian about the new impending Euro CRA act. Debian as you can imagine has taken a strong dislike to anything that it see as breaking the user and release of free software. While I have read a few documents (many of them going straight over my head), I am not sure where the UK sits of supporting EU IT legislation, but I don't think this act is in anyway going to help the situation which they foresee it helping, just making it a lot worse.
