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.

Ipcalc ā Command line CIDR calculator with IPv6 support
ipcalc is older than 2015, but it lived in a different repository:
https://github.com/fedora-sysv/initscripts/commits/313773794...
ipcalc gets removed here:
https://github.com/fedora-sysv/initscripts/commit/76201baf7a...
All in all it looks like ipcalc predates sipcalc by three years (1998 vs 2001)

What are some things that could mount swap that isn't /etc/fstab?
I found a github issue here that seemed to explain things.
-
Why does compiling packages in zram work, but not the Linux kernel?
Also, sys-block/zram-init::gentoo Scripts to support compressed swap devices or ramdisks with zRAM (https://github.com/vaeth/zram-init/)

Does Gentoo support zswap (openrc) as seen on fedora 33? I cannot find any explicit guidance in the handbook. Iām looking for disk backed zsawp not swap in zram. Is this only achievable with systemd?
IIRC zswap is zram used for swap, so as long as your kernel has zram support, you can use zswap. You can use zram with zramctl from util-linux. However, there is also the sys-block/zram-init package: it's a wrapper around zramctl which offers an openrc script to automatically create zram devices at boot. It also provides configuration for zswap. Configuration is in /etc/conf.d/zram-init.
What are some alternatives?
init - KISS Linux - Init Framework
log2ram - ramlog like for systemd (Put log into a ram folder)
ipcalc
ramroot - Load root file system to ram during boot.
ipcalc6 - an ipv6 calculator built in rust that "looks and feel" like the ipcalc command on linux
gentoo_unattented-setup - Automated modular GENTOO linux setup
portage-bashrc-mv - Provide support for /etc/portage/bashrc.d and /etc/portage/package.cflags for the portage package manager (Gentoo Linux)
hmg - Personal Gentoo/Linux configurations
auto-zram - Automatically configure zram as swap on a machine, using sensible defaults, with the ability to tweak it to your needs.
save-backlight - An OpenRC service for restoring the last brightness level on reboot
gentoo-portage-tmpfs - openrc initd for mounting Gentoo portage on tmpfs, keeping the ebuild repo persistent in fast memory instead of disk
