No video of the event yet, sorry!
Fixing security and other bugs after the release of an openSUSE distribution needs of course to be done. Over the years process and tools were developed to facilitate these processes, and these are currently run by the openSUSE Maintenance team and also by the Evergreen team. The talk will give a process and workflow description of the openSUSE Maintenance process and go into some technical detail how it is set up.
