summary
Buildroot reports ~1,500 commits and about 100–120 contributors per release, with quarterly releases and one February release kept as LTS for roughly 13–14 months. Security hardening turns on PIE, stack protector, relro and fortify by default and adds a make package stats target that matches configured packages to NIST CVEs using CPE metadata and per-package ignore CVE entries. SELinux now sets file contexts at build time and supports modular policies. Go/Rust use post-download helpers to vendor dependencies; Python 2 is removed.
