jstable vs Strimzi: at a glance
What is jstable?
A clinical table generator paying down years of edge cases in survey-weighted models
jstable turns regression and survival models into the formatted tables medical papers publish, wrapping coxph, glm, geeglm, lmer and their survey-weighted counterparts. The recent line is almost entirely correction work, concentrated in two places: the .display family and the TableSubgroup family. Version 1.3.25 alone fixed quasibinomial support for survey-weighted logistic regression, automatic factor-to-numeric outcome conversion for svyglm, weighted-versus-original sample counts in the n row, data.table input handling, and Overall column labelling.
What is Strimzi?
Strimzi's 1.2.0 candidate closes with a logging fix and nothing else
The 1.2.0 release cycle has reached its second candidate, and it is a small one: a single fix for incorrect CA logging on top of rc1. Everything substantive in this release landed in rc1 — Kafka 4.3.1 support, per-pod volume templates, and server-side apply now permanently enabled. This feed publishes only release candidates and never the finals, so an rc is the record of what shipped.

◆ Current state
jstable turns regression and survival models into the formatted tables medical papers publish, wrapping coxph, glm, geeglm, lmer and their survey-weighted counterparts. The recent line is almost entirely correction work, concentrated in two places: the .display family and the TableSubgroup family. Version 1.3.25 alone fixed quasibinomial support for survey-weighted logistic regression, automatic factor-to-numeric outcome conversion for svyglm, weighted-versus-original sample counts in the n row, data.table input handling, and Overall column labelling.
◆ Where it's heading
Each CRAN release bundles several GitHub patch versions, so the notes read as rolled-up fix lists rather than feature announcements. The substantive thread is pcut.univariate, introduced across seven display functions in 1.3.11 to allow multivariable analysis restricted to significant variables, and repaired repeatedly since as it collided with interaction terms, single-variable selections, clustered models and data.table inputs. The survey-weighted path is the other recurring source: counts, labels and family handling that worked for unweighted data kept failing once weights were involved.
◆ Prediction
Expect further patches in the survey-weighted subgroup functions, since 1.3.25 fixed four separate issues there and each recent release has surfaced more in the same area.

Strimzi's 1.2.0 candidate closes with a logging fix and nothing else
◆ Current state
The 1.2.0 release cycle has reached its second candidate, and it is a small one: a single fix for incorrect CA logging on top of rc1. Everything substantive in this release landed in rc1 — Kafka 4.3.1 support, per-pod volume templates, and server-side apply now permanently enabled. This feed publishes only release candidates and never the finals, so an rc is the record of what shipped.
◆ Where it's heading
Post-1.0 Strimzi is spending its cycles on how the operator manages Kubernetes resources rather than on new Kafka surface. ServerSideApplyPhase1 has gone alpha to GA and is now always on, and 1.2.0 changes install-time defaults toward Restricted Pod Security Standard security contexts and volume-mounted Service Account tokens. A second candidate carrying one logging fix says the cycle is converging rather than still absorbing change — the CRD v1-only requirement from 1.0.0 remains the loudest thing in every release body.
◆ Prediction
Expect 1.2.0 final shortly with no further candidates, and the next cycle to advance one of the open feature gates — UseBackgroundPodDeletion is the likeliest to move from alpha to beta.
