For the past 30+ years I’ve been the maintainer of sudo. I’m currently in search of a sponsor to fund continued sudo maintenance and development. If you or your organization is interested in sponsoring sudo, please let me know.[0]
wow, I never realized sudo is from 1980[0]! I thought it was a product of the late '90s. It's actually incredible it has managed to stay around this long.
Wow he changed two million lines of the sudo codebase over the project history and made 10,548 commits. That's bonkers. Sudo is clearly doing a lot more under the hood than I thought it did. A simple security critical command shouldn't have that much churn. It should arc towards immutability like TeX, which has had like twelve changes in the last 40 years.
