Minutes/Updates

• Issue discussion/Dev updates
  • L3AF R2
    • RBAC https://github.com/l3af-project/l3af-arch/discussions/57
      • Option 1: RBAC framework using x.509 PKI Certificate Attributes
        • Not every CA will issue those types of certs (w/usernames)
      • Option 2 OATH
        • No work required. Just consume already existing resources.
        • Many enterprises already using it.
          • ex: Windows Active Directory
      • Option 3. Digital Signature based Authorization with mTLS
        • Minimal overhead.
        • Partly extensible. Partly standards compliant.
        • Protocols mature, framework not so mature.
      • Option 4. SHA256 Hash based Authorization with mTLS
        
        • Don't want l3af to be the actual auth service.
        • Custom implementation
    • We don't want to take ownership by building our own RBAC
      • Building an e2e RBAC does not align with L3AF goals
        • Also managing the RBAC lifecycle
      • Enterprises should use their own control plane to manage L3AFd
      • Supporting only 2 roles at first is okay, but we have to be extensible
      • Most enterprises will have central control.
        • Leave it up to them.
      • Option 2. mTLS with OAuth 2.0 Client Authentication, but:
        • If nobody is going to use anything other than read/write then we do not need to build RBAC now.
          • We will document how to integrate RBAC option 2.
            • Document how L3AFd could integrate with the above
    • feat: introduce interface-based data types #229 - https://github.com/l3af-project/l3afd/pull/229
      • Standardize to open source.
      • Finish most of R2 PR then merge this.
      • Approach agreed upon.
    • Update configs from command line argument #242 https://github.com/l3af-project/l3afd/pull/242
