Update on my OSS work - November 25, 2022
Raw
oss-news.md

Hey sponsors!

Here is a quick update regarding what my OSS work has been focused on lately:

  • Symfony is smoothly integrating more modern (standard) authentication flows in core, especially OpenIDConnect. I've helped making the first step in Symfony 6.2: Adding a generic RFC6750-compliant Bearer Access Token authenticator (symfony/symfony#46428).
  • Next steps: Now helping someone contributing a built-in OIDC authenticator (symfony/symfony#48285), also a CAS authenticator (symfony/symfony#48276).
  • Also on the Security topic: I gave a talk at SymfonyCon in DisneyLand Paris about GNAP - The future of OAuth. Once the protocol goes stable, an integration will come into Symfony as well (WIP from me). It was my biggest conference so far :)
  • I started contributing to some Golang OSS, mostly to push forward a recent feature from HTTP that aims to improve application performances: HTTP 103 Early Hints responses, the replacement of HTTP-2 server push. It's very exciting as it's a new language for me, but I don't plan to stop working on PHP anytime soon (never!). Here is the PR: dunglas/vulcain#95.
  • I keep doing my regular day-to-day maintenance work on Symfony Core (still in the top 5 all-time and most active contributors) which also includes reviewing and pushing fixes for security vulnerabilities, as well as maintaining popular community packages such as lexik/jwt-authenticationbundle and league/oauth2-server-bundle which I maintain on my own.
  • I keep helping contributors doing contributions, and even become speakers. Here is a really interesting person & OSS maintainer that I proposed to give a talk to API Platform Con 2022: Florent Morselli aka @Spomky. He gave a great talk and then started contributing even more to the Symfony ecosystem, which is awesome to me.

That's all, I hope you appreciate the feedback. Don't hesitate to ping me on twitter, slack or email if you have any question (or additional need, basically I can help for anything Symfony).

Thank you very much for sponsoring me, I hope you will be able (and want) to continue doing so despite there're other (way more important) causes and given the current overall economic situation. Anyway thank you for what you did so far, that's incredibly motivating.

Cheers!
Robin
