BAC minutes: https://openssl-communities.org/d/Q7WDdBE2
TAC minutes: https://openssl-communities.org/d/WCuw3xhQ
This month: CRA reporting obligations arriving on 11 September (and EU standards comment windows open now), AI-assisted security research collaboration, FIPS 140-3/CMVP status, OpenSSL Conference call-for-papers (~120 submissions), and communities housekeeping.
Questions and comments are welcome directly in those threads — your delegate carries this community's voice into the August calls.
Of particular note here: the conference CFP and the delegate refresh — if you'd like to get more involved, this is a good moment.

Hi Anton,
Thanks for sharing the July minutes — there's a lot of interesting material in there this month.
The CRA reporting obligations coming up on 11 September caught my eye. That's a fairly tight timeline, and I'd be curious to hear how delegates are thinking about preparation and whether there are any specific action items the community should be aware of ahead of that deadline.
The AI-assisted security research collaboration discussion also sounds promising. I think there's real potential there, and it would be great to see where that conversation goes in the August calls.
On the conference CFP — ~120 submissions is impressive! Is there a sense yet of how the review process will be structured, and whether there's an opportunity for community members to get involved in reviewing or providing input?
Happy to dig into the minutes threads and add any comments or questions directly there. Thanks as always for keeping the community informed.
Best regards,
Josef
