stigo | In reply to @hexa:lossy.network stigo: is there anything we can do about HTTP:Tiny? We're safe, HTTP::Tiny is patched in nixpkgs | 20:24:55 |

stigo | Had some great discussions at a meetup with the toolchain group last week. There seems to be some consensus to change HTTP::Tiny, we're looking at using TUF for repo/author signing on CPAN, and have started a cpan security working group to make more good things happen. Open vulnerabilities are also going to be visible on metacpan.org soon hopefully. | 09:21:39 |

stigo | There was also a good amount of Chartreuse involved :) | 09:28:41 |

Short of the Perl Steering Council directly asking for a change
stigo you know what to do ;)
Done :) | 09:51:35 |
Janne Heß | It was supposed to be a joke :D | 09:52:22 |
stigo | They haven't decided anything yet, ofc, but moving in the right direction i think. | 09:53:12 |
