Und noch etwas: Wir fordern das BSI auf, für das neu einzurichtende CRA-Beschwerdeportal digital souveräne Open-Source-Lösungen zu verwenden...

...statt den gleichen Fehler wie beim NIS-2-Meldeportal zu wiederholen, das sensible Daten der kritischsten Unternehmen in Deutschland verarbeitet und auf einer Cloud-Infrastruktur von AWS aufsetzt. 😵‍💫

Open Source Business Alliance12h ago

📆 Bald müssen Unternehmen die Anforderungen des Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) erfüllen.

Das deutsche „CRA-Durchführungsgesetz“ legt fest, welche Wirtschaftsakteure bei der CRA-Compliance Unterstützung bekommen können.

Wir fordern: Das CRA-Durchführungsgesetz muss genau wie der CRA selbst die Besonderheiten des Open-Source-Ökosystems berücksichtigen – denn ohne Open Source läuft nichts!

LibreOffice calls out EU Commission for requiring proprietary XLSX-only feedback templates in Cyber Resilience Act consultation, excluding ODF users. 🧩

Document Foundation demands ODF/ODS or web forms as equal alternatives to uphold EU interoperability goals and avoid vendor lock-in. 🛡️

Die EU predigt digitale Souveränität, aber bei der eigenen Konsultation zum #CyberResilienceAct gibt's nur Microsoft-Excel-Formulare. 🤦

Die #DocumentFoundation kritisiert das als "strukturelle Voreingenommenheit" und fordert offene Standards wie #ODF. Denn wer #LibreOffice nutzt, muss erstmal basteln.

Sollte die EU nicht mit gutem Beispiel vorangehen? 🌍⚖️

#Digitalization #CyberResilienceAct #EU - Request to the European Commission to adhere to its own guidances - "The European Commission has accepted our request, and starting from today – Friday March 6 – has added the Open Document Format ODS version of the spreadsheet to be used to provide the feedback. We are grateful to the people working at DG CONNECT, the Commission’s Directorate-General for Communications Networks, Content and Technology, for responding to our request within 24 hours.

UPDATED Request to the European Commission to adhere to its own guidances - TDF Community Blog

The European Commission has accepted our request, and starting from today – Friday March 6 – has added the Open Document Format ODS version of the spreadsheet to be used to provide the feedback. We are grateful to the people working at DG CONNECT, the Commission’s Directorate-General for Communications Networks, Content and Technology, for responding to our request within 24 hours. At this point, the rest of this message is no longer relevant, and the call for action is no longer necessary. ARCHIVED MESSAGE The European Commission has spent years advocating for open standards, vendor neutrality, and digital sovereignty. The European Interoperability Framework explicitly recommends open formats for public sector digital services. The EU’s own Open Source Software Strategy calls for reducing dependency on proprietary technologies, and the Cyber Resilience Act itself is designed to address systemic risks from unaccountable technology dependencies. On March 3rd, 2026, the European Commission published a request for feedback on to the guidances to be provided in relation to the CRA, which must be provided through the linked spreadsheet in .xlsx format, a proprietary format that makes interoperability extremely difficult due to its ever changing and undocumented features. This is not a minor procedural oversight.
