After many iterations, and with valuable training from Red Hat security engineer Martin PrpiΔ (thank you!), I'm now convinced that the DSF should become a CNA. This is already on the agenda to discuss with @webology.bsky.social (our Fellows Board Liaison) next Monday π
Django is exploring ways to handle security disclosures made publicly in issues/PRs instead of following our documented process. How do you handle such cases? Also, if you're on GitHub, feel free to upvote & join the discussion: github.com/orgs/communi... π #Python #Django #Security
This International Women's Day, we're celebrating a historic milestone in Djangoβs journey!π

Recently, I dealt with an unpleasant PR comment. Instead of acknowledging the misstep, the person deflected and tried to flip the situation. Carlton wisely talks about this:

Just finished reading buttondown.com/carlton/arch... and I couldn't agree more with @carltongibson.bsky.social. His analysis and reasoning are spot on. I'd love to hear ideas on how we can improve the 'social' aspect of raising awareness for Django 3rd party apps.
I was going to joke about Stone Temple Pilots but I'm leaving on a southern train
Our amazing Adam (@adamj.eu) proposes incremental solutions to this issue in this excellent post: adamj.eu/tech/2022/03...
Hear me out. Idea for a new social network. No posts. You just log in and follow everyone you know from the other ones.
