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.

GPL-3.0 licensed BIOS for Intel 8088 based computers
No, CPU is irrelevant, even the early chipsets didnt try to invent anything and mostly implemented XT peripherals leading to universal exchangeable clone bioses. OP didnt suggest otherwise, he simply mentioned author also publishes a couple open source 8088 motherboard projects:

Looking to make own 8-bit Computer
I sort of wanted to try the Micro 8088 myself, but it seems like the FE2010 is very expensive, and the more available PT8010A apparently is slower (https://github.com/skiselev/micro_8088/blob/master/Documentation/Proton-XT_Controller-PT8010AF.md)
- Are there any good old pc replicas in stock that i could solder?

I ordered and received a Homebrew 8088 system. I've got a case and power supply for it, now I just need to find an 8bit ISA VGA adapter and order a PS/2 USB adapter.
This seems to much similar to the https://github.com/skiselev/micro_8088 because both use "FARADAY" chipset, which makes BOM much smaller. The original "FARADAY" chipset is hard to find now but I have seen "PROTON" version of that but there are slight to be addressed changes. It is readily available for around USD 20.
- Are there any more 8086 kits out there?

If you use DOS, mTCP and a vintage PC plus network card...
I built a micro 8088 with an 8bit ISA backplane (https://github.com/skiselev/micro_8088) and I use a D-Link DE-220CT (http://support.dlink.com.au/drivers/files/adapters/de220.htm) in an 8 bit slot . The driver dowloads have the packet driver for DOS. I have mTCP plus some WATTCP apps, all of which work perfectly.

Past meets present in this $200 mini-laptop with a Intel 8088 chip and 640KB
Just a heads up, it looks like these guys ripped off Serge Kiselev's 8088 BIOS [1].

TinyBIOS – A minimalist open-source BIOS project for fun
There are at least three "real" 8086 BIOSes-- "real" as in they can work on actual hardware rather than just emulators-- available in source form, which might be worth examining.
https://www.phatcode.net/downloads.php?id=101 -- this is a respin of code that apparently originated in the 1980s in sketchy Taiwanese clones, so I think some of the docs are reverse engineered
http://glabios.org/ is an all-new-still-under-development project, but it works well enough for my hobby usage.
https://github.com/skiselev/8088_bios These are more targeted towards some specific hardware projects (Xi8088/Micro8088)
Obviously, being for a simple 8086 mrans they don't have some of the complex chipset config used in a modern PC, and even stuff like "hard disc support" is outsourced (for that, you might consider stuff like the XT-IDE Universal BIOS)
