(veskuh, 09:03:43) * Damien Caliste, community member (dcaliste, 09:04:20) * Pami Ketolainen, developer @ Jolla (pketo, 09:04:52) * Dylan Van Assche, SFOS developer (modulebaan, 09:05:06) * CalDAV bugs - request for contributors (10-15 min, asked by chriadam) (Jaymzz, 09:07:07) * There are a variety of bugs in the CalDAV sync adapter (https://git.merproject.org/mer-core/buteo-sync-plugin-caldav) which are difficult for me to test and fix for a variety of reasons (access to servers of correct versions, different language issues, internal company prioritisation, etc), which I would love to see some community contributions for. The bug numbers are: MER#1500, MER#1569, MER#1623, MER#1624, MER#1625 (see e.g. (Jaymzz, 09:07:27) * LINK: https://bugs.merproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1624). So, this topic is basically reaching out to the community to see if some person or persons would be willing to help investigate these issues and hopefully provide fixes. I can provide information on how to get started, how to get more debug output, and so on, to help reduce the learning curve as much as possible. Aside from fixing bugs directly, I'd really like to have unit tests added (Jaymzz, 09:07:28) * LINK: https://git.merproject.org/mer-core/buteo-sync-plugin-caldav (Jaymzz, 09:07:49) * LINK: https://bugs.merproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1624 (Jaymzz, 09:07:59) * LINK: https://bugs.merproject.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=caldav (chriadam, 09:13:50) * LINK: https://bugs.merproject.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=caldav (Jaymzz, 09:14:16) * ACTION: if you're able to help, please send an email to chris dot adams at jolla dot com with your irc nick + the manner in which you might be able ot help (Jaymzz, 09:16:17) * Security and authorization on SFOS (30 min, asked by Lucien Xu / Sfiet_Konstantin / SfietKonstantinW ) (Jaymzz, 09:19:47) *  At the moment, there is no security, nor authorization frameworks. However, security and privacy on mobile device is an important topic. The major OSes all implement sandboxes to prevent malicious applications to do unwanted things. I would like to explore how to enhance the situation on SFOS, and how to proceed. This topic would be a discussion and a brainstorming about what the technologies involved (SELinux ? Polkit ? etc) and (Jaymzz, 09:20:03) * At the moment most activity is around getting the stack more up-to-date (regarding security) (Jaymzz, 09:25:33) * Then we will be doing key security enablers like improved bootup security & flashing. (Jaymzz, 09:25:48) * And as features file system encryption and vpn support are being worked on.
