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.

My original vaccine passport. We all had them... has everyone forgotten?
Hahaha. That’s blatantly false. There are many open source GitHub repos for projects that allow you to scan the QR codes and there’s nothing of the sort in them. Here is one of many. Try it yourself. https://github.com/obrassard/shc-extractor

Reporting counterfeit Proof of Vaccination?
The app is fairly irrelevant - all they get is info that’s in the QR code - and that’s not secret, you can extract that info yourself: shc-extractor (You can’t use this to verify that a QR code isn’t just made up by a random individual, that’s what you need the official app for.)

Ontario to announce new COVID-19 measures for proof of vaccination Friday
The Ontario scanner app checks the signature to verify its authenticity, and shows a big yellow "warning" symbol and a "There is a problem" message. You can see what this looks like if you try scanning the QR code here.

Alberta Health says privacy breach possible on province's vaccine passport website
The article says that 12 people downloaded the wrong QR Code. That's it. It's possible to extract data from the QR Codes (which are just encoded SHC records) using this: https://github.com/obrassard/shc-extractor

How does everyone feel about restaurants not properly checking for vaccine proof?
There's even some pre-built software to help you do it.

Has anyone had their Covid Vaccine QR code scanned in a restaurant since the government launched it?
You'll get the string shc:/ followed by a long sequence of numbers. The encoding is described here if you're curious. The code library used to extract the information is here if you want to read exactly what your QR code says.

Minister of Digital Government on Vaccine QR app/codes
It's not. It is encoded based on a specification that anyone can look at. You can scan the code to get the shc string. Then use this tool to extract the information from it.

The Alberta QR codes are a universal standard called SMART Health Cards that can be scanned and verified worldwide by many apps including Apple Camera. They are the best solution and the government has finally done something right!
For worldwide usage, there is a project called The Commons Project where health organizations and governments can apply to have their issuer URL added to. They are adding them here. This will allow third-party scanning apps to get a list of trusted issuers so that they can validate any QR code in the world without having to worry about who to trust.
Most likely, the Alberta verification app they're releasing is going to contain the decryption keys or its going to check that the issuer URL is the Alberta one, as someone could fake the QR code by using their own issuer that returns their own keys to verify the fake QR code. For international verification to work properly, Alberta will need to add their issuer URL to the commons project, which many apps use to check that an issuer is a real authority and not just some random untrusted source.

England vaccine passport plans ditched
Verification apps should check the issuer. But you can issue and sign your own vaccine codes trivially.
Some apps will go a step further to check that the issuer is “trusted.” For example, there is a list of some issuers considered trusted here:
https://github.com/the-commons-project/vci-directory/blob/ma...
The most popular reader app I know of will mark issuers that are not on this list as “Partially-verified.”
I’m not going to get too deep into this because it’s clear that HN is, for some reason, very antagonistic toward any discussion on the matter unless some correct permutation of words is used. Nonetheless, I’ve researched this quite a bit. Anyone can make and issue their own SMART Health Card.
