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.

Ferrocene – Rust for Critical Systems
For supply chain security, you might be interested in cargo-vet[0], a tool for coordinating and requiring manual reviews of open source dependencies. Both Mozilla and Google[1] have started publishing their audits.toml files, which are a machine-readable file describing what source code reviews they have performed.

Rust security scanning options
there is also cargo-vet for manual auditing of the source code of the crates, which is not something that can be done automatically. Quite a few companies and orgs use it now like Mozilla, Google, Bytecode Alliance, us (Embark Studios), ISRG, zcash etc. And believe its usage will expand significantly going forward with corporate users and security sensitive projects/orgs.

NPM repository flooded with 15,000 phishing packages
If you don't know the author, signatures do nothing. Anybody can sign their package with some key. Even if you could check the author's identity, that still does very little for you, unless you know them personally.
It makes a lot more sense to use cryptography to verify that releases are not malicious directly. Tools like crev [1], vouch [2], and cargo-vet [3] allow you to trust your colleagues or specific people to review packages before you install them. That way you don't have to trust their authors or package repositories at all.
That seems like a much more viable path forward than expecting package repositories to audit packages or trying to assign trust onto random developers.

How do regulates companies handle software of unknown Provence (SOUP) when using needed open source crates?
The other approach is https://github.com/mozilla/cargo-vet
- greater supply chain attack risk due to large dependency trees?
- Dozens of malicious PyPI packages discovered targeting developers

Vetting the Cargo
Since the audits are designed to be used at a per project level and contributed directly into the VCS repo (allowing you to using git signing for example) I don't quite understand what additional off-line cryptographic signatures are required here (considering that Cargo's lockfiles already contain a hash of the crate which would prevent the project from getting an altered version of a crate accidentally and that SHA validation is being considered as part of vet as well https://github.com/mozilla/cargo-vet/issues/116).

How do you handle "generic packages" deployment?
I think it's not about missing commands, but missing destination (package repo of "generic" type). Very same issue posted here: https://github.com/community/community/discussions/38083

Strange issue with networking on Ubuntu Server 22.04
It appears that you're using IPv6 (your ping is returning IPv6 addresses). A quick search shows some github services may not support IPv6 but that's just a guess

VundleVim
Yeah, Vundle's (presumably temporary) removal caught me off guard today on a fresh install. This, in turn, has caused me to take a hard look at the Vim plugins I was using. Turns out I only needed one...which I wrote. So I'm now just storing that one in the horrible "vanilla" Vim plugin scheme and putting that in my dotfile management.
Just a good reminder that dependencies will always let you down. It's just a matter of time. Oh, and never turn your back on a big company.
Here's the tracking on this issue:
https://github.com/community/community/discussions/48173
GitHub: "The VundleVim organization has been flagged. Because of that, your organization is hidden from the public."
