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.

Xmpp Bot with its own address.
One option, maybe a little clunky - check out profanity (https://profanity-im.github.io/), a terminal based xmpp client. It has a python api. You can write a crude plugin to connect to [email protected] (or whatever user you figure out). Then just listen for incoming messages on a loop. When something is received, run it through a few cases to match the message with the intended event (or discard or whatever). Then probably trigger some external shell script to do the data retrieval, returning to the plugin to send. Profanity runs on pretty much anything.

Recommendations for an intranet only (unfederated) chat, for notifications and 2 users
Or, there is profanity (https://profanity-im.github.io/) and there is a python library that makes things go quickly. I had a thought to have a plugin autoconnect the "bot" user to the server, start an omemo session with a user (or users), and listen on a local socket or something for messages to send over the omemo session. I had issues with the omemo enrollment/key exchange sticking though, which made it unreliable.

AWS Libcrypto for Rust
Again, this is just a temporary situation, and a matter of burning down a list of small tasks. Not that the OpenSSL license issue is a big deal for most anyway. Feel free to help; see this issue filed by Josh Triplett: https://github.com/briansmith/ring/issues/1318#issuecomment-...

A brief guide to choosing TLS crates
Note also that rustls depends on ring, which has architecture-dependent code in it that is not as widely compatible as eg. OpenSSL/GnuTLS/Mbed-TLS. For example, MIPS is not supported by ring.

Releasing Rust Binaries with GitHub Actions - Part 2
The AWS Rust library we were using as a dependency depended on a cryptography library called ring. This library leverages C and assembly code to implement its cryptographic primitives. Unfortunately, cross compiling when C is involved can add complexity to the build process. While it might've been possible to overcome these issues I decided that it wasn't worth digging into more.

Urgent Upcoming OpenSSL release patches critical vulnerability
That'd be great. Thanks Brian. Re: making ring portable to all platforms: IBM have been graciously maintaining a up to date patchset for Ring for years now and there's an outstanding PR here you may not have seen since they filed it in 2020... https://github.com/briansmith/ring/pull/1057

OpenSSL Security Advisory [5 July 2022]
Beyond the simple matter of Rust being much newer than OpenSSL, one concern for some cryptographic primitives is the timing side-channel.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timing_attack
In high level languages like Rust, the compiler does not prioritise trying to emit machine code which executes in constant time for all inputs. OpenSSL has implementations for some primitives which are known to be constant time, which can be important.
One option if you're working with Rust anyway would be use something like Ring:
https://github.com/briansmith/ring
Ring's primitives are just taken from BoringSSL which is Google's fork of OpenSSL, they're a mix of C and assembly language, it's possible (though fraught) to write some constant time algorithms in C if you know which compiler will be used, and of course it's possible (if you read the performance manuals carefully) to write constant time assembly in many cases.
In the C / assembly language code of course you do not have any safety benefits.
It can certainly make sense to do this very tricky primitive stuff in dangerous C or assembly, but then write all the higher level stuff in Rust, and that's the sort of thing Ring is intended for. BoringSSL for example includes code to do X.509 parsing and signature validation in C, but those things aren't sensitive, a timing attack on my X.509 parsing tells you nothing of value, and it's complicated to do correctly so Rust could make sense.
