RE: education suggestion

["Coffin, Chris" <ccoffin@mitre.org>]

Ø  So it would appear many people are losing their mind on oss-security, which is not surprising as we haven't really educated people about what's up. 

 

Just a heads up to the Board on this, we will be putting together a response to all of the comments received so far on the oss-security mailing list. I expect to get something sent out midday tomorrow.

 

Ø  I would suggest we come up with a quick one page education document that covers the new way forwards and why it's better/more sustainable

 

This is a great idea Kurt! We will draft something and get it sent out as soon as possible.

Subject: education suggestion

 

So it would appear many people are losing their mind on oss-security, which is not surprising as we haven't really educated people about what's up. 

 

I would suggest we come up with a quick one page education document that covers the new way forwards and why it's better/more sustainable, major points to include:

 

1) moving forwards it's all about structured data and automation, random email requests is not sustainable

 

2) MITRE has minted many more CNAs (and continues to do so) so there won't need to be as many requests to MITRE

 

3) the DWF is in the process of doing the CVE Mentor and multiple CNA roll out, which will be way more efficient/easier then everyone in the OpenSource community having to poke MITRE constantly
