I agree that the TOC shouldn't allow the external-secrets-operator to become an Incubating project as is, but a bit more empathy towards maintainers would be nice.

Something that is one my mind for quite some time, but I do wonder what the value is of donating an open-source project to the #CNCF. In reality a lot of the donated projects are being contributed by only 1 or 2 companies.

[Incubation] external-secrets-operator Incubation Application · Issue #1486 · cncf/toc external-secrets-operator Incubation Application Project Repo(s): https://github.com/external-secrets/external-secrets Project Site: https://external-secrets.io/latest Sub-Projects: https://github....

CNCF TOC reaction when the maintainers of external-secrets-operator ask for help in the community is a bit baffling. They propose to close the application for incubation status for the time being #noempathy github.com/cncf/toc/iss...

I went with Karakeep over the weekend for the same reason. No off-line reading functionality but they are working on it

Security Features PostgreSQL 18 introduces oauth authentication, which lets users authenticate using OAuth 2.0 mechanisms supported through PostgreSQL extensions. Additionally, PostgreSQL 18 adds several features to validate and enforce FIPS mode behavior, and also adds the ssl_tls13_ciphers to let users configure which TLS v1.3 cipher suites the server can use. This release deprecates md5 password authentication in favor of using SCRAM authentication that was first added in PostgreSQL 10. md5 authentication will be fully removed in a future major version release. Additionally, PostgreSQL 18 adds support for SCRAM passthrough authentication with both postgres_fdw and dblink when authenticating to remote PostgreSQL instances.

PostgreSQL, the open source database that continues to get better, is introducing oauth support. This should help with database automation and hopefully bring us one step closer to moving away from static credentials and copying usernames and passwords around. www.postgresql.org/about/news/p...

I was at RSA for the first time last year and found it interesting how many people were wearing their badges in public outside of the conference venue.

More comparable to the first guides on how to get started with Kubernetes.

Any good technical or product book recommendations?

The year delay was already factored in, the month exploring wasn’t planned 😀

The #kubecon jetlag is real after returning yesterday! Slowly getting back into everyday life.

What a #kubecon, so great to see so many familiar faces and hang out with them. Currently I am very tired, but I am so energised.

Last talk of #kubecon for me. #SPIFFE the easy way with #cert-manager

Open source 2.0 the maintainers perspective #kubecon

Massive queue for the #cert-manager booth at #kubecon last chance to get your physical certificate

Heroku had an early concept of the 12 Factor App, and in a Cloud Native world, it's time for an update. Twelve-Factor is now an open source project! And the Maintainers have plans with how it's going to change.
