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.

Backdoor in upstream xz/liblzma leading to SSH server compromise
A lot of software (including https://gitlab.com/openconnect/openconnect of which I'm a maintainer) uses libxml2, which in turn transitively links to libzma, using it to load and store compressed XML.
I'm not *too* worried about OpenConnect given that we use `libxml2` only to read and parse uncompressed XML…
But I am wondering if there has been any statement from libxml2 devs (they're under the GNOME umbrella) about potential risks to libxml2 and its users.

Actual SSH over HTTPS
From the article:
> Ubiquitous presence of HTTPS allows you to pass your data through very restrictive middle boxes!
This is, in fact, why all — or nearly all — proprietary VPN protocols (so-called "SSL VPNs") implement a mode that initiates a tunnel via HTTPS, at least as a fallback if not as the primary mode of operation: precisely in order to have a mode of operation that works with almost any connection to the global Internet.
I'm one of the main developers of https://gitlab.com/openconnect/openconnect, which implements many such protocols, and wrote https://github.com/dlenski/what-vpn, which sniffs or identifies even more flavors of TLS-based VPN servers.

OpenConnect stopped working: Unexpected 404 result from server
Found the solution: It's as simple, as changing the user agent with --useragent=AnyConnect. This is ridiculous. https://gitlab.com/openconnect/openconnect/-/issues/544

Which SLT package is better if I want the best consistent speed? would they reduce the speed in the unlimited package?
I personally have an openconnect server, and I patched their client to let me specify the SNI, (it's set to the server's hostname by default (https://gitlab.com/openconnect/openconnect/-/blob/master/gnutls.c#L2366), but it's optional in the anyconnect protocol spec)

GlobalProtect from PaloAlto: "Cannot connect to local gpd service."
Thank you, trying openconnect for multiple hours, but cannot auth, created issue about that https://gitlab.com/openconnect/openconnect/-/issues/446

Overriding a minimum EC2 sizing from a vendor
If this is for anything other than AnyConnect I feel like you're better off with a t4g.nano running OpenVPN. If it's AnyConnect, you can run OpenConnect.

Create second MacOS VM within MacOS install
I had similar issue with Fortinet VPN. Try using something like https://gitlab.com/openconnect/openconnect. Run this from terminal to connect to VPN when needed. If this doesn't work search for global protect open source and there are other options.

Xmake: A modern C/C++ build tool
re: C/C++ development: anybody using conda/pixi for dependency management? Here's an example of compiling a C++ SDL program using pixi and the SDL dependency from conda-forge [1].
Seems viable as a replacement for things like vckpg [2] which only builds from source.
I'm still researching this but it seems like rattler [3] is the tool to use to build/publish packages. The supported repos are: prefix.dev's own hosting, anaconda.org, artifactory or a self-hosted server.

Dependencies Belong in Version Control
vcpkg may expire assets after 1.5 years, so achieve long-term reproducibility you will need to cache your dependencies.... Somewhere. Not sure what the expected solution is.

My first Software Release using GitHub Release
There were various approaches recommended depending on our language and ecosystem. My classmates who developed using Node.js were recommended npm, and PyPI or poetry for Python. Since my program is written in C++, I was recommended to look into one of vcpkg or conan, but I ultimately did not use either package manager.

Anyone else frustrated with Conan2?
Which dependencies are not in vcpkg? We can ask them to add it. It’s pretty easy just open an issue there https://github.com/microsoft/vcpkg/issues .
