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.

Switching To wayland with Nvidia Drivers.
I actually got a chance to develop against some proprietary API and i don't blame them for not wanting to support proprietary drivers , But there is at least one guy maintaining a fork for nvidia so you can try your luck there.

Introducing River, a Dynamic Tiling Wayland Compositor
The developer of the EGL stream fork of wlroots wants to migrate to the original version, maybe if he will become a maintainer there could be a change in the status quo, or he can maintain a fork with fixes.
-
NVIDIA GBM support eta?
Sway uses wlroots, which is one of I believe 3 wayland libraries (wlroots, smithay and taiwins). It just happens that sway (and most other compositors such as river, hikari, dwl) use wlroots, which doesn't care about nvidia. There is wlroots-eglstreams if you want to try that.
-
Any reviews for Gaming on Wayland with NVIDIA GPU Drivers?
That is not entirely true, there is a fork of wlroots which supports NVIDIA's proprietary driver's EGLStreams implementation, which works fine with Sway and probably other WMs too, see https://github.com/danvd/wlroots-eglstreams.
- It runs sway!
-
Nvidia engineer confirms Sway works with the GBM path of their driver
In the meantime you can use wlroots-eglstreams
-
Nvidia and Sway
Install a fork of wlroots (the library used by Sway to do pretty much everything).
-
Sway not working on my system(Fedora 34)
Also I know about a fork a guy did for wlroots that adds support for egl streams but this is far from ideal, it's a interesting job nonetheless https://github.com/danvd/wlroots-eglstreams
-
Good compositor that support Nvidia's driver?
If your a technical person , you can give wlroots-eglstreams a try (it's a fork of wlroots adding nvidia support).
-
How can I try Wayland with the new NVIDIA 470 drivers?
As of now you can run Sway with wlroots-eglstreams, which is a work-in-progress fork of wlroots, working as drop-in replacement, see https://github.com/danvd/wlroots-eglstreams and https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/wlroots-eglstreams-git/.

The File Filesystem
FFS predates FreeBSD and is in some capacity supported by all 3 major BSDs. I'm fairly confident that Linux actually supports it through the ufs driver ( https://github.com/torvalds/linux/tree/master/fs/ufs ); whether the use of different names in different places makes it better or worse is an exercise for the reader.

Linus Torvalds adds arbitrary tabs to kernel code
These are a bit easier to see what's going on:
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/d5cf50dafc9dd5faa1e...
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/d5cf50dafc9dd5faa1e61...
Unfortunately Github doesn't have a way to render symbols for whitespace, but you can tell by selecting the spaces that the previous version had leading tabs. Linus changed it so that the tokens `default` and the number e.g. `12` are also separated by a tab. This is tricky, because the token "default" is seven characters, it will always give this added tab a width of 1 char which makes it always layout the same as if it were a space no matter if you use tab widths of 1, 2, 4, or 8.

PfSense Software Embraces Change: A Strategic Migration to the Linux Kernel
There was also a Gentoo effort to run atop FreeBSD[0]. The challenge of course is that afaik none of the BSD kernel ABIs are considered stable. The stable interface is the BSD libc. That said, with binfmt_misc, I don't see a reason you couldn't just run (at least some) FreeBSD binaries on Linux with a thin syscall translation layer (rather something like qemu-system) and then your layer hooked via binfmt_misc. I'm not aware of anyone who has done this for FreeBSD, but prior efforts existed as alternate binfmts for SysVr4/5 ELF binaries[2]. Either way would take some elbow grease, but you *might* even be able just reuse binfmt_elf and just have a new interpreter for FreeBSD elf.

Improvements to static analysis in GCC 14
> The original less-than check was deemed incorrect
It was only deemed incorrect because of an information leak. Not because it's a valid use-case for user space to copy smaller portions of *hwrpb into user space. https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/21c5977a836e399fc71...

TinyMCE (also) moving from MIT to GPL
Correct. And the combined work needs to carry the MIT license text and copyright attributions for the MIT software authors. With binary distribution it must also be overt, not hidden in some source code drop, but directly accompanying the binary.
Many people who talk about relicensing never credit the MIT developers or distribute the MIT license text. "Because it's GPL now."
I don't think that you believe that, but many developers do.
Some don't see the need for source code scans for Open Source compliance, because the license.txt says GPL, so it's GPL. Prime example is the Linux kernel. There is code under different licenses in there, but people don't even read https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/COPYING till the end ("In addition, other licenses may also apply.") and conclude it's simply GPL 2 and nothing else.
Also be aware that sublicensing is not the same as relicensing.

> Does he have something against it?
He notoriously hates GNU Emacs, yes.
