Vouch: A Community Trust Management System for Open Source Projects
By

Hot, fresh, and worth queueing round the block for.
Summary
Vouch is a community trust management system that allows open-source projects to control participation through explicit vouching and denouncing mechanisms. The system requires users to be vouched for before interacting with certain project areas, with configurable enforcement. It's designed to be generic and work with any code forge, though it provides GitHub integration via GitHub Actions and CLI. The vouch list is maintained in a simple flat file format that can be easily parsed with standard POSIX tools.
