Their repo has like 300 open issues today... I have type 1 diabetes, and use open source tech for getting the glucose readings from my sensor and pushing it to a Pebble, but insulin dosing is a way more complex story.

An interesting question to ask one’s self: how many open issues exist in the private repo of the various commercial insulin dosing providers? How would one judge, at any given moment, whether Company A or Company B has the more robust software? And whether Company C’s recent v2.0 release has increased or decreased the reliability of their software?

that's a metric to compare only because that data is available.

how many issues are open on the tracker for the closed-source equivalent?

I have no idea, that's why I am not using an insulin pump either:)

How would you know they have a tracker?

Would you please share which sensor and which open source tech you use?

I use Dexcom G6 CGMS with Nightscout and xDrip+. xDrip+ runs on Android, gets the data from the Dexcom transmitter, and sends it to a Pebble watch and also to a mongodb database. xDrip itself supports a lot of CGMS systems, I've been using it since G4, which was not Bluetooth ready initially, so you had to build a bridge that read the data from the transmitter and sent it to the phone. Way easier nowadays,as the transmitter is using BLE.
