Counting down for CRA: updates and expectations
summary
EU vote happens later this year with formal adoption possibly taking years; law carves out an open source steward category and adds supplier-style obligations for sold software. PSF documents a timeline, hires security staff, makes CPython a CVE numbering authority, and builds PyPI support for vulnerability handling and maintainer handoffs. Expect concrete requirements: public security policy, vulnerability reporting paths, machine‑readable advisories and a security announce mailing list for alerts and coordination.
