my week(s):

[Daniel's week] February 6, 2026

FOSDEM, FOSDEM repo, distro meeting 2026, bug-bounty, -J, release date, podcast, 40K stars, Battleye, thread pool

I'm putting together a list of big and small issues that makes us (the curl project) considering switching away from GitHub for security reporting/advisories again:

Gist

GitHub Security Advisory wishlist from the curl project

GitHub Security Advisory wishlist from the curl project - GSA-wishlist.md

*considering* being the operative word, nothing has been decided and I think it's fair to give it some more time first. And some communication to see what can be done, fixed or adjusted. To be continued.

The panel: Europe as the World’s Home for Open Source from the EU Open Source Policy Summit 2026 in which little me played a little part...

New financial contributor to #curl: Open Broadcaster Software ($10,000.00)

Early anecdotal data: turning off the bug-bounty may not make much difference... 😱

If you think I'm a little high and mighty nowadays it might be because of my hobby: collecting medals.

the public consultation on "European Open Digital Ecosystems" apparently received 1,658 submissions. One of the biggest public consultations ever apparently. Well done fellow Open Sourcers!
