Date

November 15, 2016

Attendees

Open Apereo 2017 

We discussed what presentation proposals we would like to see submitted by the 11/28 deadline. Jim will encourage submissions on the uportal-user list. The uPSC will assist with evaluating proposals.

Invited call attendees

The uPSC voted to invite Stephen English (Project Manager at Unicon focused on uPortal work) and Jat Pannu (Business Developer and strategist for the K12 Initiative) to participate on the monthly calls. They bring unique perspectives to the project and will help the uPSC in its work on improving the uPortal project. The uPSC affirmed its intention of encouraging more conversations about uPortal in general on the public lists and other venues.

uPortal Security Incident Response Plan

We discussed the current draft of the uPortal Security Incident Response Plan and reviewed status of incidents. Jim will complete the next draft of the plan. We discussed Apereo becoming a CNA for the scope of Apereo projects and thereby able to assign our own CVEs within pre-allocated-to-Apereo-CVE-ID-blocks.
