The next meeting for the OpenChain UK Work Group will be held on Thursday 30 September 2021 from 14:00 - 15:30.
A full agenda will be launched prior to the meeting, which will be an interactive session with plenty of opportunity to ask questions and discuss OpenChain adoption and best practice.
There has been a huge amount going on in the world of OpenChain, with a raft of new, high-profile conformance announcements, new optional extensions to the standard covering security and community engagement, and increased emphasis on the ease of use of tooling.
Open Chain’s General Manager Shane Coughlan will be joining us, and bringing us up to speed on new initiatives intended to make existing compliance tools like FOSSology and ScanCode easier to use.

One of the core guiding principles for the OpenChain Specification is to focus on the what and why of compliance (and avoid the how and when). This is highlighted in the introduction of the spec. That is avoid being prescriptive.
It was always understood that the OpenChain Project would foster the creation of various materials around best practices to educate how other companies achieve conformance. That is - to describe the prescriptive ways of others. This has not been done with any formal structure yet within the project. The proposed levels approach is the first attempt to do this which I commend. What I disagree with is mixing the specification to tightly with prescriptive ways because it undermines a core principle and purpose of the specification.
I suggest we create a complimentary best practice program/guide that encourages companies to consider various prescriptive levels. That is, have Best Practice Levels (bronze, silver, gold, …) but DON’T confuse it with the spec (which is: about what and why, practice neutral, non-prescriptive, …). For instance, have a program with its own logo (for example - see attached)

[Please note: This e-mail is from an EXTERNAL e-mail address]
Dear all
During a recent OpenChain Japan Planning meeting we discussed the challenge of “next steps” in OpenChain ISO 5230 conformance. Our initial goal of adoption in the supply chain is well underway. Our basic concept of “raising all the boats” is working. But now it is time to talk in more detail about “raising the boats to where?”
From its launch in October 2016 until today, the OpenChain Project has been based on the concept of continual improvement (or Kaizen). We can now provide a “map” to help guide companies in this process, and to help customer companies judge the sophistication of suppliers who have adopted OpenChain ISO 5230.
Attached is a slide-deck exploring how this can be done. We will be discussing this in the OpenChain bi-weekly global work team meeting today (Monday 23rd of August) at 14:00 UTC. All welcome. No registration.

The OpenChain Security Assurance Reference Guide 1.0 has a similar format to OpenChain ISO 5230. It can be regarded as a map enabling a user to transpose the proven processes of ISO 5230 to the security domain. This first iteration of the reference guide focuses on the core process of identifying and addressing “known vulnerabilities.” Over time we will evolve the guide to refine its effectiveness.
The OpenChain Security Assurance Reference Guide should be understood as a method to complement rather than compete with security specific standards. It is quite possible that an organization is compliant with another given standard will automatically meet all the processes outlined in the OpenChain Security Assurance Reference Guide. This is by design.
As the OpenChain Project adds additional reference guides over time (e.g., quality, export compliance, malware and functional safety) the value of OpenChain ISO 5230 will grow. This work – as with all activity inside the OpenChain Project – will be undertaken by the community of user companies for the benefit of the community.

In this Zoom room:
https://zoom.us/j/4377592799
The finished document will be released this week. It will provide context to all users of OpenChain ISO 5230 on application in the context of security.
This document will provide all that is necessary to apply OpenChain ISO 5230 to address security matters related to open source. It does not alter or adjust the standard itself. It is a “mapping” guide.
Here is the document in a format that allows you to add comments:
