Branch protection

To enable the CI dashboard fix to go into production ASAP, Max had to suspend branch protection rules in order to enable force merging. Let's discuss when and how to take this step in the future.

@Lucas Gonze 

•  

  • Revisit due to slack discussion

  • TSC Will Vote On The Following

    • Force merging is off by default

    • Only Linux Foundation, IE Benjamin Sternthal, is allowed to set it to on.

    • LF may only enable it by vote of the TSC.

    • Lucas proposed change → Requires two TSC members to vote on approval

  • Max → unclear on what goals we are tying to accomplish

  • Vote will be recorded here. 

OpenSSF Best Practices Badge update

Move To LFX Platform For Meetings

LFX has a tool that allows us to manage zoom meetings. I'd like to transition the TSC meeting to that tool by end of the month. Highlights:

• You will get a new invite (note I will just invite current TSC folks and folks who regularly attend)

• Meeting will still be on shared calendar.

• Meeting can still be public

• Meeting will be auto-recorded

• The only change, you may have to login with your LFX id

@Ben Sternthal 

Should we require admin approval prior to allowing new people in slack?

If we continue to have disruptive folks in slack, one option is to require admin approval for joining. The admin could at least check if the email address is from a throwaway account.

@Ben Sternthal 

Hold off on discussion for now, this is just one person who is not  currently being disruptive.
