ManageEngine RecoveryManager Plus
RecoveryManager Plus keeps widening its backup coverage across the Microsoft identity estate.
A side-by-side editorial comparison of admiralneuro and ApexCharts — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
admiralneuro is widening from Alzheimer's PET into general nervous-system findings.
The package launched in September 2025 with amyloid and tau PET analysis for Alzheimer's studies — centiloid computation, five neuro datasets, and ADAPET/ADTPET template programs. The February 2026 update is tagged twice on the same day, 0.2.0 and 0.2.1 carrying the same notes, and adds olfactory testing plus a nervous-system findings template.
Licensing settled, ApexCharts is back to changing what a chart can take as input.
ApexCharts is deep into a fast v6 line, shipping roughly weekly. The licensing arc that dominated 6.5 through 6.7 — trial watermarks, the first premium-gated chart type, then entitlement checks — has settled, and the last three releases are library work again. 6.9.0 is the largest of them: a histogram type that bins raw samples, a morph engine that conserves marks across chart types, and the end of the library's dependency-free packaging.

Development is moving from one disease area toward a general neuro toolkit: UPSIT smell-identification percentiles now sit alongside PET quantitation, and the ADNV template covers nervous-system findings broadly rather than PET specifically. Internal SDTM test data was retired in favour of pharmaversesdtm, tying the package more tightly to the shared pharmaverse data layer.
More assessment-specific compute functions on the UPSIT pattern are the obvious next step, each arriving with a vignette and a template program alongside it.

The through-line now is input and arrangement rather than catalogue size. Charts increasingly accept the measurements a team actually has instead of pre-aggregated values, and the seams that let you hand a chart its own layout — plotOptions.unit.positions, the pluggable layout hook — are being filled in with kits rather than hard-coded options. The premium boundary has stopped moving; the free catalogue keeps growing around it.
Expect the raw-observation pattern to reach another chart type now that the bar pathway handles binning, and expect the remaining pluggable seams to get companion kits the way positions just did.
