SFP#48: Policy and EU: From open questions and attestation, how the CRA is moving forward!
Once again Alexander Sander and Bonnie Mehring sat down for our monthly Software Freedom Podcast episode! The Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) keeps us busy and there are still a lot of uncertainties around it. Take a break and listen to our latest Policy and EU episode of the Software Freedom Podcast.
Alex and Bonnie talk about the most pressuring questions from the community in regard to the requirements by the CRA. During FOSDEM a Q&A session was organised in the Legal and Policy DevRoom. At this session a lot of questions were pointed towards the role of the stewards and manufactures and what the CRA requires of them and what it does not. Together, Alex and Bonnie shed some light on the roles of Free Software developers and about the options the CRA has in stock for single developers. Followed by an outlook on what will come next in the CRA with the upcoming delegated act on Article 25, with option of attestation.
