Grafana Mimir vs sdtm.oak

sdtm.oak builds SDTM datasets — the tabulation standard clinical trial submissions are filed in — from raw collected data. The 0.1.0 release shipped the mapping algorithm functions and derived-variable helpers but explicitly excluded DM, trial design domains, and several others. Version 0.2.0 closes the largest of those gaps, adding DM domain support via calc_min_max_date() and oak_calc_ref_dates(), plus generate_sdtm_supp() for supplemental qualifier domains.

This is the pharmaverse pattern of building submission tooling in the open, one domain class at a time, with the release history running through GitHub release-candidate tags before each CRAN submission. The direction is clear from the domain checklist: start with the mechanically simple Findings and Events domains, then work toward the ones with cross-dataset dependencies. DM and SUPP were the two that most often forced teams back to bespoke code.

The remaining exclusions from the 0.1.0 scope — trial design domains, SV, SE, RELREC and the EPOCH variable — are the obvious next targets, with EPOCH likely first since it depends on the reference dates 0.2.0 just added. Expect the same rhythm of release candidates ahead of each CRAN submission.
