Dear Openpower-Firmware community members,
starting November 25th, 2019, the github.com/open-power and
github.com/ibm-op-release organizations will start enforcing two-factor
authentication (2FA) for interacting with it's repositories, meaning
that "members, outside collaborators, and billing managers (including
bot accounts) who do not use 2FA will be removed from the organization
and lose access to its repositories"[1]
In order to not be removed, before Nov 25 2019, please enable 2FA[2] for
all your Github.com accounts interacting with any of the several
repositories contained within these organizations. These include, but
are not limited to: skiboot, petitboot, op-test, op-build, hostboot,
sbe, occ, platform XML files, etc
This action is aimed at better protecting the repositories and our
members, i.e., avoiding account hijacking and rogue code insertion.
Thank you for your support,
-Klaus
