Hi, As the head developer and project manager of the Hardened Debian project, I'm proud to announce that we are going to make a meeting in the project IRC channel (#debian-hardened on Freenode IRC network) to talk about the project goals, status, development and anything else interesting for anyone and related with the project. The idea is to give an image of the current status and the evolution that the project is following, also for clarifying any misunderstanding or doubts about the things we are working on and their impact & implementation on the Debian project, also about possible allies to make the efforts in the right way and decide a couple of standards to make that efforts available for other environments, assuring the compatibility and the interoperability between them. Mainly, the standards should be decided about the best possibility of implementation of the IBM Stack Smashing Protector / ProPolice inside the toolchain, also about the ways to make the changes transparent to the users who don't want to complicate their everyday use (aka "desktop" users), and providing useful and complete tools for the ones that want (aka "sysadmins" or simply highly concerned users about what hardening means for them). The talk/meeting will start at the next Saturday, 13 November 2004, 15:00:00 CET (please, you can know at http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?day=13&month=11&year=2004&hour=15&min=0&sec=0&p1=141 the corresponding time in your time zone) and, by the moment, will not be moderated, as it is an open event for everybody who wants to participate. There are some documents already online that can help to understand the things that we are going to talk about, if you haven't heard/know about them, i recommend reading http://wiki.debian-hardened.org and the Debian: Secure By Default project website at http://d-sbd.alioth.debian.org. Best regards, -- Lorenzo Hernandez Garcia-Hierro <lorenzo@gnu.org>
