artoo
artoo makes any-to-any clinical dataset conversion lossless by construction.
A side-by-side editorial comparison of Jackett and statpsych — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
Daily tags chasing tracker domain moves, login changes and freeleech detection
Jackett continues to ship a tag most mornings, each one a short auto-generated commit list of indexer definition edits. The newest adds a cookie login variant for HD-Space and captcha-aware login for funfile; the day before was a sweep of domain bumps and download-volume-factor detection corrections across torrenttip, magnetcat, 52bt, torrenteros, tocashare and seedcore. No release in this window touches the application itself.
A statistics catalogue for psychology that grows by the release and rarely changes shape.
statpsych supplies confidence intervals, hypothesis tests, power calculations and sample-size planning for the designs psychology researchers actually run, exposed as several hundred small named functions rather than a modelling framework. Version 2.0.0 adds eight functions across logistic model performance, Kendall tau-a intervals and sample sizes, intraclass correlation testing, Geary kurtosis and Mann-Whitney power, and retires three names in favour of generalised replacements. The major version number reflects those removals rather than a change in how the package is used.

This is maintenance as a product, and the cadence is the feature. Trackers rotate domains, add captchas, switch to cookie auth or vary their freeleech percentages, and Jackett absorbs each change within a day — Scenetime was added and dropped within days, 720pier removed and then restored by revert. The recurring shift from form login to cookie and captcha handling across sites is the one visible pattern: the definitions are steadily taking on more anti-bot handling.
Expect the same daily cadence of definition edits, with more cookie and captcha login variants as trackers tighten access. The entries show no application-level work planned or in progress.

The major version number reflects those removals rather than a change in how the package is used.
Every release in this window is the same shape: a list of new functions, occasionally a rename. The package grows by filling cells in a grid of estimand, design and inferential goal, and 2.0.0 is notable only for finally deleting the three names its generalised replacements had superseded. That makes it a reference library whose value is coverage and stability, not direction, and the entries give no sign of that changing.
Expect the accretion to continue along the same axes, with sample-size and power counterparts filled in for estimands that currently have interval functions but no planning ones. The 2.0.0 deletions suggest occasional consolidation passes when a generalised function makes older specific ones redundant.
