There has been a lot of action for the Python C API in the last month or
so—much of it organizational in nature. As predicted in our late September article on using the “limited”
C API in the standard library, the core developer sprint in October was the
scene of some discussions about the API and the plans for it. Out
of those discussions have come two PEPs, one of which describes the API,
its purposes, strengths, and weaknesses, while the other would establish a C
API working group to coordinate and oversee the development and maintenance
of it.

Alexander “Solar Designer” Peslyak, the longtime maintainer of the
oss-security and linux-distros mailing lists, has announced
that this work has gained a sponsor:

After 15+ years of being a 100% volunteer effort, Openwall’s
maintenance of oss-security and (linux-)distros is finally
sponsored by the OpenSSF, a project of the Linux Foundation. This
sponsorship does not provide the Linux Foundation with the ability
to set policies for community resources managed by Openwall. I am
grateful for the support, which will help ensure continued
operation of these resources on a new level while retaining
independence.

As part of this arrangement, Peslyak is now producing statistics on
vulnerability handling; the first
set for 2023 has been posted.
