Looking into the https://forgefed.org spec this evening and there’s nothing about packages or dependencies yet. Imagine if repositories and forges could announce to the maintainers of packages that they just started using their package, and then be able to subscribe to maintainers announcements of new releases, security advisories and calls for help. They don’t even do that in centralised forges very well at the moment!

My last "year in review" post I wrote was in 2019. I have been considering writing one for 2025 but as a "glass half-empty" person it is so hard.
I wonder if [the DependencyReportTask task] (https://www.jvt.me/posts/2020/07/27/gradle-list-all-dependencies/) might be something you can use? I've not tested it, but it might need to pull the dependencies to then list them?

it's truly amazing what LLMs can achieve. we now know it's possible to produce an html5 parsing library with nothing but the full source code of an existing html5 parsing library, all the source code of all other open source libraries ever, a meticulously maintained and extremely comprehensive test suite written by somebody else, 5 different models, a megawatt-hour of energy, a swimming pool full of water, and a month of spare time of an extremely senior engineer
