Those I don't remember. I think I may have grepped for virtio in the osinfo-db tree. (apk add the_silver_searcher && ag virtio)

I wanted the virtio driver to be used for alpine, but it looks like
other distros like ubuntu does not add those?

I don't remember where I got those numbers from. I might have tested the minimal RAM for alpine to boot, but I'm not sure. I doubt alpine will boot with less than 130MB ram.

The recommended RAM and disk was likely something based on what I typically select.

I'm pretty sure it can be scripted. Seems like there are other distros that has it scripted:
https://gitlab.com/libosinfo/osinfo-db/-/tree/master/scripts/updates

The release-date and eol-date can be taken from 
https://gitlab.alpinelinux.org/alpine/infra/alpine-mksite/-/blob/master/alpine-releases.conf.yaml

I'm gonna add some patches with alpine release up to 3.13 to
community/osinfo-db, but I think we need to add testdata also and
upstream it.

I also have issues with getting osinfo-detect find the alpine images.
