Hi all,
We are planning to make a community meeting about the EU CRA, so we can
discuss our action plan forward.
The meeting is planned for Tuesday 22 Aug 13:00 UTC in our Jitsi room:

Hi OSGeo
The European Union's proposed Cyber Resilience Act has just come to the
attention of many non-EU folks as a potential dampener on open source
geospatial software development and usage. A summary from GitHub is here
(thanks Marco Bernasocchi for pointing it out):
https://github.blog/2023-07-12-no-cyber-resilience-without-open-source-sustainability/
It's being discussed in the OSGeo board, and some responses from other
open source organisations have already been made, for example:
https://newsroom.eclipse.org/news/announcements/open-letter-european-commission-cyber-resilience-act
It would be great to hear your thoughts on the impact of the proposed
legislation on open source geospatial software development across the
globe - so we can form an appropriate community response as soon as
possible. What are your thoughts?
Yes, we're late in gettung our attention on to this. Hopefully not too
late.
Thanks,
Adam
