Feb 1, 2026February 2026 (2026-02) monthly summary for nordic-institute/X-Road focused on strengthening repository hygiene, stabilizing developer tooling, and aligning CI/CD practices. Key features delivered include finalizing a Version Control Policy for v2 Generated DTOs and improving tooling/documentation consistency. While initial changes to ignore rules were added and later aligned with the decision to track generated artifacts in version control, the end result is reliable artifact tracking in CI/CD. Additional tooling improvements included bumping the pnpm version and correcting the system test command in the README to reflect current tasks, reducing CI/test failures.

Nov 1, 20242024-11 Monthly Summary: Implemented EC-based cryptography for improved security posture across the X-Road Central Server and Security Server, enabling EC signing keys and EC authentication with migration-ready configurations and comprehensive documentation. Strengthened reliability by guarding certificate processing against unknown public key types, emitting explicit errors to prevent silent failures. Completed maintenance and tooling upgrades to keep dependencies current and codebase healthy (lint tooling, cross-spawn version pinning, Hibernate refactor) with updated docs. Demonstrated strong cross-repo collaboration through coordinated commits across CS and SS, ensuring traceability and smoother rollout of crypto enhancements. This work delivers business value through stronger cryptographic foundations, reduced operational risk, and clearer migration guidance for future upgrades.
