Explore the principles and activities of the CIP Kernel Team in this informative conference talk. Delve into the "Upstream First" philosophy and learn about the Civil Infrastructure Platform (CIP) project's governance structure, development models, and kernel maintenance processes. Discover how CIP artifacts can be utilized, and gain insights into the project's focus on cybersecurity, including CVE tracking and compliance with IEC 62443 standards. Examine the testing architecture, release policies, and statistics of the CIP Super Long Term Support (SLTS) kernel. Understand the advantages of CIP over non-CIP distributions and explore the various workgroup repositories and testing links associated with the project.
