Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Rust Offline?
Further we use cargo-auditable and cargo-audit as part of both our pipeline and regular scanning of all deployed services. This makes our InfoSec and Legal super happy since it means they can also monitor compliance with licenses and patch/update timings.

Hey Rustaceans! Got a question? Ask here (15/2023)!
This exists, see cargo auditable.

The Rust Implementation Of GNU Coreutils Is Becoming Remarkably Robust
The Rust community seems to have settled on a perfectly reasonable way to address bit-rot in statically linked binaries. https://github.com/rust-secure-code/cargo-auditable

Release Engineering Is Exhausting So Here's cargo-dist
Would you be open to integrating cargo auditable into this pipeline in some form? It seems like a great match.

Swift Achieved Dynamic Linking Where Rust Couldn't
> and static compilation probably just hides the problem unless security scanners these days can identify statically compiled vulnerable versions of libraries
Some scanners like trivy [1] can scan statically compiled binaries, provided they include dependency version information (I think go does this on its own, for rust there's [2], not sure about other languages).
It also looks into your containers.
The problem is what to do when it finds a vulnerability. In a fat app with dynamic linking you could exchange the offending library, check that this doesn't break anything for your use case, and be on your way. But with static linking you need to compile a new version, or get whoever can build it to compile a new version. Which seems to be a major drawback of discouraging fat apps.

'cargo auditable' can now be used as a drop-in replacement for Cargo
I have investigated a bunch of standardized formats - SPDX, CycloneDX, etc. All of them are unsuitable for a variety of reasons, chief of which are being way too verbose and including timestamps, which would break reproducible builds.

sccache now supports GHA as backend
The fix for interoperability with cargo auditable has also shipped in the latest release of sccache. You can use the released sccache now instead of building it from git!
-
`cargo audit` can now scan compiled binaries
I've been working to bring vulnerability scanning to Rust binaries by creating cargo auditable, which embeds the list of dependencies and their versions into the compiled binary. This lets you audit the binary you actually run, instead of the Cargo.lock file in some repo somewhere.
-
Here's how to patch the upcoming OpenSSL vulnerability in Rust
cargo auditable solves this problem by embedding the list of dependencies and their versions into the binaries. But until it becomes part of Cargo and gets enabled by default, static linking will remain problematic.
- Introducing cargo-auditable: audit Rust binaries for known bugs or vulnerabilities in production

Any suggestions on joining GSoC Haskell.org?
I'm interested in Google summer of code event but missed it last year. I want to attend the event this year and notice that Haskell.org was one of the organizations. It sounds really exciting, I hope Haskell.org will participate in GSoC this year as well. But I have little experience with Haskell, I'm worried about how to write an expressive proposal when I don't even know which projects they will focus on. Can anyone give me so resources or suggestions about the following question?

Google calls for new government action to protect open-source software projects
OSS have benefited from Google Summer of Code, Google has released many fundamental libraries as OSS such as Guava for Java, Abseil for C++, etc. Many have criticized that Google never made money of a lot of its innovations, and instead had others build their own based on Google's shared information (Hadoop, and later all nosql databases, for a quick example; Docker came to be from open source innovations that Google put into Linux for their own container system). Even as Google has begun monetizing, they still open source core parts of their products (such as Kubernetes) for their benefit.

If Google was smart....
They actually do something like that. It's called Summer of Code.
