<p>The bug discovered affecting OpenSSL and breaking internet
doesnt directly touch OpenStack <a
href="http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack/2014-April/006539.html">but
can lead to OpenStack compromise</a>. The width of the problem
discovered this week is extremely wide though and I think its
worth spending some more time learning about it. <a

collected an impressive amount of links where you can learn more.</p>

<h3><a
href="http://opensource.com/business/14/4/governance-openstack">How
to govern a project on the scale of OpenStack</a></h3>
<p>How an open source project is governed can matter just as much as
the features it supports, the speed at which it runs, or the code
that underlies it. Some open source projects have what I call a <a
href="http://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2014/01/on-the-reign-of-benevolent-dictators-for-life-in-software/283139/"
target="_blank">benevolent dictator for life</a>. Others are
outgrowths of corporate projects that, while open, still have
their goals and code led by the company that manages it. And of
course, there are thousands of projects out there that are written
and managed by a single person or a small group of people for whom
governance is less of an issue than insuring <a
