"We are pleased to see the enthusiasm around the BACs, as elected members will have significant influence in shaping OpenSSL's direction," noted Matt Caswell, President of the OpenSSL Foundation. "Each BAC will meet regularly online, with an annual in-person meeting in Europe at the OpenSSL Conference to address important issues and provide crucial updates. For transparency, meeting minutes will be published, and an annual report will capture the committee's activities and recommendations, helping to guide decisions in line with OpenSSL's Mission and Values, which are fundamental to our work, while keeping the communities informed and engaged."
"Being on an OpenSSL BAC offers an opportunity to shape the future of a critical security project that impacts businesses worldwide," said Tim Hudson, President of the OpenSSL Corporation. "Members will have significant influence on key decisions, helping to align actions with both business needs and OpenSSL's Mission and Values, which are central to our work. They also gain valuable visibility and connections within the open-source and security communities. It is a chance to make a meaningful impact."
