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.

Check out Solana's new Solana Improvement Document (SIMD) proposals
Jump Trading announced a number of months ago that they'll be building a separate validator client from scratch with Firedancer. We also have Jito Labs building their own client for their MEV system/infrastructure. Given the development of this separate validator software it is now necessary to better coordinate changes to the underlying Solana specifications/architecture so that development and software changes are congruent. As a place to facilitate discussion for new major proposals to the blockchain, we now have what are called Solana Improvement Document (SIMD) proposals. which are analogous to Ethereum's EIP's and Bitcoin's BIP's. SIMD proposals can be found in the Solana Foundation github repo here and there will also be regular core engineering community calls to discuss SIMD proposals and other related topics (these will be announced in the Solana Tech discord).
- Solana Foundation just held the first-ever core dev community call with engineering teams from across the ecosystem, here's what was discussed!

"SIMD" will be the equivalent of EIP's for this process https://github.com/solana-foundation/solana-improvement-documents

There is also an effort to outline the protocol specs more clearly so other client teams can join more easily at some point. https://github.com/solana-foundation/specs
