Bosh proposal for enhancement of rotating bosh-agent certificates/credentials
jpalermo@...
Hey all, we’ve got a proposal out for how to enhance the process of rotation certificates/credentials used by the bosh agent (making NATS cert rotation easier being the primary driver): https://github.com/cloudfoundry/bosh/discussions/2309Looking for feedback. Ideally we’d like to keep the conversation around it in the github discussion so it’s more permanent and discoverable.

CFF Working Groups: feedback and participants requested!
Hi, everyone,
As we mentioned at CF Summit last week, the newly formed Technical Oversight Committee (TOC) is currently carrying out more and more of the details of the transition from the previous project-team and project management committee (PMC) structure to the working
groups and community roles.
To that end, we have proposed an initial set of working groups on
PR #140 on the community repo, together with how they will subsume the existing project teams and components. As a community, we now need to confirm the scope of each of these working groups, to staff them with leads and approvers, and to get them up and
running with transparent development and roadmap processes. Consequently, we need a few things from the community now:
We're currently working out these details for the App Runtime Deployments working group as a pilot case, so if you care about
cf-deployment, KubeCF, cf-for-k8s, or the overall community mandate to provide reference deployments of the App Runtime, now is the right time to get involved! The TOC would also like
to complete this process for the complete set of working groups over the next few weeks, so if you're more focused on another area of the CF community, we need your involvement as well.
We invite everyone to join to discuss these working-group proposals at the public TOC meetings every Tuesday at 10:30 am ET, with details on the
CF community calendar, and to provide feedback asynchronously on a particular proposed working group is the draft PR for its charter. Here is the full list of those charter PRs:
Please don't worry if you don't see a particular project listed here: it should be present in the PR content itself, and if it's not, the TOC wants to know about it!
Thanks,
Eric Malm, TOC member

Update regarding Bionic Stemcells: Version 1.10 released from Foundation owned infrastructure
Riegger, Felix
Dear Cloud Foundry community,
The migration of the Stemcell release infrastructure and pipelines from VMWare to CloudFoundry Foundation owned accounts is mostly done. With Bionic Stemcell 1.10 the first Stemcell has been created and released with the new setup.
This is again a huge step forward to bring the Stemcell into the hands of the communitiy. Again a big thank you to everyone involved in this journey.
What has changed?
The new Stemcells are now published in Google Cloud Storage instead of AWS S3. This change uncovered a bug in the BOSH CLI, which has been fixed in the latest version. Please update to https://github.com/cloudfoundry/bosh-cli/releases/tag/v6.4.4 to consume the latest Stemcells.
In the previous setup BOSH Acceptance Tests (BATS), IPv4 and IPv6 tests have been executed against a vSphere environment owned by VMWare. In the new setup these tests are executed in a GCP environment. Unfortunately, it was not possible to replicate the IPv6 tests to this environment. While we don't expect big changes in this area this implies that IPv6 might stop working at some point with newer Stemcells without us noticing. If this is important to you and you would like to contribute please reach out to discuss options.
Where can I access the new infrastructure?
The concourse is hosted on https://bosh.ci.cloudfoundry.org/ and runs on a GCP account of the CloudFoundry Foundation.
Where is the code?
The repositories for the pipeline definitions and the stemcell code itself have not changed. They can be found in https://github.com/cloudfoundry/bosh-stemcells-ci and https://github.com/cloudfoundry/bosh-linux-stemcell-builder.
Any assets regarding the Concourse setup live in https://github.com/cloudfoundry/bosh-community-stemcell-ci-infra.
Who can access the pipelines and contribute?
Any member of https://github.com/orgs/cloudfoundry/teams/bosh-stemcell can access and work with the pipeline as well as the relevant repositories. If you would like to become a contributor, please reach out.
Where can I follow?
Work can be tracked in https://github.com/orgs/cloudfoundry/projects/4.
Anything else?
As was announced by the CFF Security Working Group in https://www.cloudfoundry.org/blog/security-advisory-update/ CFF security advisories are now in place for Bionic Stemcells and the release of version 1.10 triggered the first advisories.
Kind regards, Felix

The CIVS site has an expired HTTPS certificate. It's a hosted, free, service... so there's nothing I can do about it at the moment. I've reached out to the service's owner at Cornell University.
