It argues that while open-source focuses mainly on licensing and code availability, open development encompasses a broader methodology that includes community engagement, collaboration, and long-term project sustainability. This model aims to address the limitations of open-source by ensuring more inclusive, transparent, and continuous development processes, ultimately leading to more robust and user-friendly software solutions. - Christopher & BC Motivation - I'm motivated in my advocacy because of rise of authoritarism, coersion, use of disinformation to support, etc. - Funding down, focused on elision, open integrity (to be renamed), open development (>open source) - Kim & DIF Motivation - ?? - Draft Documents I'd love your opinions on: - Progressive Trust Lifecyle (or phases?) - https://hackmd.io/g0A7XMNbSYqOePHON0HT5Q - ABSTRACT: Model and language based digital trust based on real-world human trust mechanisms. Advocates for a process where trust builds gradually through interactions, aligning with traditional human relationships where trust evolves over time. This approach counters the simplistic, binary trust models prevalent on the internet, suggesting a more nuanced and reliable method of establishing digital trust through multiple, progressive stages that reflect real-world trust-building processes. - A Git Repo Root of Trust - https://gist.github.com/ChristopherA/dcf963c3849bc0d67b35c215efd15f86 - https://gist.github.com/ChristopherA/8c92856959e8556f7308127b60b265bcdddddd - Authentication, A Heterogeneity Design Pattern - https://developer.blockchaincommons.com/architecture/patterns/auth/ - ABSTRACT: Patterns of heterogeneity in authentication by enhancing security by diversifying and separating authentication methods. Details how varying authentication approaches—such as multifactor, multichannel, and threshold authentication—mitigate risks like honeypots and zero-day attacks. These design pattern helps construct robust authentication systems by integrating multiple methods to ensure greater security and resilience against breaches.
