MavenGate gets it all wrong and hurts open source
- gavinhoward 2y agoThis security theater around supply chain security is getting ridiculous. What we need is true supply chain security, but no one is willing to pay for that; it would mean paying FOSS projects, and companies don't want to pay for their "free" software.
- rho138 2y agoI just want an actual bill of versioned open source software used in each closed source app.
- rho138 2y agoAre packages cryptographically signed by the actual package maintainer or only with the repo owners key?
- erikvanoosten 2y agoAs package maintainer you are required to sign the packages with a PGP key. Maven Central also requires that you upload that PGP key (the public part only of course) to one of a few well-known key servers.
