Is this of interest? Security is one area where any negative perceptions could create a big barrier for people. It would be good to have some sort of credentials I think,

Subject: [apereo-projects] Practices around security event handling

Fellow Projecteers,
At the conference I happened to have a conversation over dinner with Misagh Moayyed about the process for handling vulnerability reports. The CAS and uPortal projects had both taken stabs recently at formalizing the processes. We approached the formalization from different angles, but I suspect our processes could end up being more similar than different. Both Misagh and I thought it would be valuable to look for a baseline common process that could be adopted by projects and customized as necessary. I suggest that perhaps a great place to start would be for a few of us to participate in a google hangout, look at what CAS, uPortal, and Sakai have to date, point out commonalities/strengths/opportunities, and take a stab at a baseline document (or identify someone to take a stab at it) that might be of use to projects across Apereo.

If you are interested in participating in this initial work, let me know and I will doodle for an open meeting time.
