• An update on upki

    From LWN.net@86:200/23 to All on Wed Feb 18 06:40:09 2026

    In December 2025, Canonical announced a plan to
    develop a universal Public Key Infrastructure called upki. Jon Seager has published
    an update about the project with instructions on trying it
    out.

    In the few weeks since we announced upki, the core revocation engine
    has been established and is now functional, the CRLite mirroring tool
    is working and a production deployment in Canonical's datacentres is
    ongoing. We're now preparing for an alpha release and remain on track
    for an opt-in preview for Ubuntu 26.04 LTS.
