Has Mutant been run against popular Ruby libraries?

question 2 connections

Audience asks whether Mutant is used to test popular libraries. Schirp: only when fixing a bug for a client's work. He has a strict no-broad-open-source policy — open source is addictive ('like cocaine') and interferes with making a living. Patches he upstreams are mutation-tested but he does not advertise Mutant in those PRs to avoid the open-source spiral.

answer_summary
Only incidentally — Schirp upstreams mutation-tested bug fixes to libraries when his client work requires it, but intentionally avoids broader OSS work.
