The OSS Ledger

A running account of upstream standing, kept by double entry: three open issues and three open pull requests carried on the books for every project, at all times. When one clears, a fresh entry is posted to hold the balance.

Accounts

Only open entries carry toward each 3 / 3 balance. Cleared items (merged or closed) drop off the balance and are listed beneath it, marked for reposting. Figures are pulled live from GitHub and the Gitea API at projects.blender.org.
