Wow it has been a busy year for security vulnerabilities. While FOSS4G software is unlikely to result in global “blue screen of death” outages - we are getting caught up in the general push to regulate IT and impose “security” on the technology that powers society.

This talk unpacks what this can look like for foss4g projects using real world examples.

• Built around the experience of the GeoServer project, and the resulting security policy and practices that can serve as a template for our foss4g community.
• Public institutions can attend this talk to learn how their security policies interact with and affect foss4g technologies.
• Vendors and service providers can learn how open source supply chains affect their products.
• FOSS4G projects can attend to learn how to approach security reports with compassion, and a bit of boundary setting, to take care of your codebase and community.

This talk explores the tensions, expectations, terrors and triumphs on this hot button topic.

Gleo is a nascent javascript WebGL mapping library. It aims to find a niche alongside Leaflet, OpenLayers, MapLibre and Deck.gl.

This library was presented at FOSS4G 2022. The "feature frenzy" highlights all of the features developed during the last year with live examples, including its extensible OOP paradigm, (re)projection support, symbols for XYM geometries, clustering, colour spaces, and vector field handling.
