End of OpenID authentication in Fedora Account System

On the latest Fedora Infrastructure weekly meeting we decided on a date of OpenID authentication sunset. The date is 20th May 2025.

Why the change?

The OpenID is being replaced by OpenIDConnect (OIDC) in most of the modern web and most of the Fedora infrastructure is already using OIDC as the default authentication method. OIDC offers us better security by handling both authentication and authorization. It also allows us to have more control over services that are using Fedora Account System (FAS) for authentication.

What will change for you?

With the End Of Life of OpenID we will switch to OIDC for everything and no longer support authentication with OpenID. If your web or service is already using OIDC for authentication nothing will change for you. If you are still using OpenID open a ticket on Fedora Infrastructure issue tracker and we will help you with migration to OIDC. For users using FAS as authentication option there should be no change at all.

What will happen now?

We will be reaching to services we identified as using OpenID directly, but as we don’t have control over OpenID authentication we can’t identify everyone.

If you are interested in following this work feel free to watch this ticket.

Packit as Fedora dist-git CI: Phase 1 completed

Hello Fedora Community,

We are excited to share an update on the Packit as Fedora dist-git CI change proposal. This initiative aims to transition Fedora dist-git CI to a Packit-based solution, deprecating Fedora CI and Fedora Zuul Tenant. The change affects the triggering and reporting mechanism for tests but does not alter the tests themselves or the test execution service (Testing Farm). The transition will be gradual, allowing maintainers to try the integration out, provide feedback and catch issues early. You can read more about the benefits and why we are doing this in the proposal.

Council Policy Proposal: DEI Events Policy

Following the discussion during the recent Fedora Council F2F on Fedora-Council#502 , the council would like to approve a new policy to set some DEI criteria for potential locations to meet when choosing where we hold our large-scale community events such as Flock. The objective behind this proposal is to make sure we have a governance structure in place to later propose some more specific rules for event location selection. The proposal has two parts: the policy itself, which proposes criteria we would like to use, and then formalize some rules to adhere to when deciding on a location. The rules will be submitted later in a separate proposal.

In order to approve this policy, we are using the policy change policy framework. By policy, this proposal is now open to our community discussion for a period of two weeks, after which the Council will hold a formal vote. The vote will come into effect on March 12th. The full proposal is available from Fedora-Council#502 and council-docs#234 , and discussion is welcome on the discourse thread.

A special thanks to our DEI team who have spent a considerable amount of time creating this well thought out policy.
