Re: [open-regulatory-compliance] Maintainer considering removing project due to CRA obligations and uncertainty

Seth,

 

Did that party identify any specifics regarding the EU-CRA open-source expectations that they are most concerned about?

 

Business Cyber Guardian is seeking to understand more details about the EU-CRA, specifically we are interested in knowing who/what is considered an “open-source software steward” and what are the obligations of an open-source software steward.

 

 

Thanks,

Hello all, hope you are doing well.

 

I was shared this example by Jarek Potiuk from Airflow, a case where an open source maintainer is planning to completely remove their project from PyPI due to the CRA uncertainty and obligations. I think this shows how important having a factual, up-to-date, TLDR-style blog post about the current state of affairs would be from our group, especially for open source projects under foundations and those maintained by individuals.
