    Description:
    Gentoo Linux has published a project
    retrospective that looks at the major improvements and news from
    2024, the Gentoo Foundation's finances, and contributions to Gentoo by
    the numbers. The number of commits to the main ::gentoo
    repository has remained at an overall high level in 2024, with a
    2.4% increase from 121000 to 123942. The number of commits by external contributors has grown strongly from 10708 to 12812, now across 421
    unique external authors. The importance of GURU, our
    user-curated repository with a trusted user model , as entry point
    for potential developers, is clearly increasing as well. We have had
    7517 commits in 2024, a strong growth from 5045 in 2023. The number of contributors to GURU has increased a lot as well, from 158 in 2023 to
    241 in 2024. Please join us there and help packaging the latest and
    greatest software.
