Hi all
The agenda for this week's TSC meeting so far is:
*
Firmware-A roadmap (TF-A, TF-RMM, Hafnium)
*
TF-M roadmap
*
TF-PSA-Crypto roadmap
Let me know if you have any other topics.
Regards
Dan.
Hi all
I've sent this to what I hope is a representative subset of TrustedFirmware.org project maintainers. Feel free to forward to others you think should be included.
I'm writing to gather maintainer feedback on a proposal for TrustedFirmware.org to have a policy on the use of AI-assistants in code contributions. Several other open-source organizations already have their own policies. Attached is the current draft of that policy, which is based on the Linux Foundation and Apache Software Foundation guidance. This has been discussed at the TF.org board and more recently, the TSC (see minutes here<https://lists.trustedfirmware.org/archives/list/tsc@lists.trustedfirmware.o…>). Eric Finco @ ST had 2 pieces of feedback to this, the 2nd of which prompted me to seek this wider input. To summarize that feedback:
1. Eric would like all contributions that use AI assistants to explicitly attribute the tool(s) used in the contribution for transparency reasons. The counter feedback is that this might be onerous to generate (especially if a tool has a complex backend) and there is no clear use for that information.
2. Eric would like the policy to apply to all TrustedFirmware.org projects, rather allowing projects to develop their own project-specific guidance (as per the current draft).
Some of this might require more interaction discussion. My plan was to invite you all to a future TSC meeting (perhaps in September) to discuss further. I'm happy to take feedback on the policy, Eric's feedback or the process to handle this. Feel free to reply to this email (to all or just to me), or just wait for that TSC meeting.
Best regards
Dan.
