GitHub welcomes the opportunity to respond to this Call for Evidence. We share the Commission's view that the CDSM Directive set a sound foundation, and the questions raised by new technology are best addressed by focused, well-evidenced adjustments where necessary rather than by reopening the Directive.

Their record over time
GitHub filed 2 positions between 13 Apr 2026 and 25 Jun 2026, across 2 of the 326 legislative files tracked here, attaching a full position paper 2 times.
What they argued
GitHub appreciates the opportunity to provide feedback to the draft Guidance on the application of the CRA. We believe this guidance, along with the already published FAQ and other publications from the Communication, greatly improves the readability and applicability of the CRA for FOSS developers and users of FOSS in various roles.

Is this your organization?
Everything on this page comes from GitHub’s own submissions to the European Commission — we have added nothing and interpreted nothing. If something is wrong or out of date, email info@policyspeak.com and we will correct it. If you are an individual named in a record, our privacy policy sets out your rights to correction, objection and removal.
Quotes are verbatim from submissions published by the European Commission, trimmed to their opening passage and never summarized by a model. Organizations only, never individuals. Reused under Commission Decision 2011/833/EU; the European Commission is not liable for this reuse.
