adjustedCurves vs Nautobot: at a glance
What is adjustedCurves?
A survival curve package spending release after release correcting its own estimates
adjustedCurves computes confounder-adjusted survival and cumulative incidence curves across a range of estimators - IPTW, AIPTW, Aalen-Johansen, direct standardisation - with support for multiple imputation and bootstrapping. The recent releases are dominated by corrections to numbers the package already reported. Version 0.11.4 fixed cumulative incidence estimates under method="aalen_johansen" that were being read one time step early, which the maintainer notes could differ substantially when events are few, and added risk and event counts to the ggsurvplot conversion including correctly pooled values under multiple imputation.
What is Nautobot?
Nautobot patched the same permissions hole on both branches, then spent the release making the UI usable without sight.
Nautobot maintains two supported lines, 3.2 and 2.4, and ships them the same afternoon with the same advisory fix. The August 17 pair closes GHSA-x69f-q4wj-vx72 — legacy console-connection, power-connection and interface-connection REST endpoints that never enforced object-level permissions. Around that, 3.2.3 carries the first substantial accessibility work visible in this window, and both branches keep absorbing dependency CVEs.

◆ Current state
adjustedCurves computes confounder-adjusted survival and cumulative incidence curves across a range of estimators - IPTW, AIPTW, Aalen-Johansen, direct standardisation - with support for multiple imputation and bootstrapping. The recent releases are dominated by corrections to numbers the package already reported. Version 0.11.4 fixed cumulative incidence estimates under method="aalen_johansen" that were being read one time step early, which the maintainer notes could differ substantially when events are few, and added risk and event counts to the ggsurvplot conversion including correctly pooled values under multiple imputation.
◆ Where it's heading
Multiple imputation is the recurring fault line. The standard error pooling formula was implemented incorrectly until 0.11.2, then fixed again in 0.11.3 for the bootstrapping-plus-imputation combination, and 0.11.4 added the pooled risk table values that had previously been omitted entirely. A separate thread quietly removed capability: tmle and ostmle methods went in 0.10.0, and tmle support was pulled again in 0.11.1 after the concrete package left CRAN. Feature work does happen - risk tables, contrast arguments, the extend_to_last control on IPTW curves - but it is outweighed by correction.
◆ Prediction
Expect continued estimator-level corrections rather than new methods, and a possible return of tmle support if its upstream dependency returns to CRAN, since the removal was described as temporary.
Nautobot
5.0INFRA · APIS
Nautobot patched the same permissions hole on both branches, then spent the release making the UI usable without sight.
◆ Current state
Nautobot maintains two supported lines, 3.2 and 2.4, and ships them the same afternoon with the same advisory fix. The August 17 pair closes GHSA-x69f-q4wj-vx72 — legacy console-connection, power-connection and interface-connection REST endpoints that never enforced object-level permissions. Around that, 3.2.3 carries the first substantial accessibility work visible in this window, and both branches keep absorbing dependency CVEs.
◆ Where it's heading
The authorization audit that forced breaking API changes in 3.2.0 and 2.4.38 is still running, and it is now reaching the endpoints nobody looks at — the legacy connection APIs kept for compatibility. Alongside it a second thread has opened: a skip-to-content link, screen-reader live regions for HTMX updates, text alternatives for rack elevations, and badge colors chosen by measured WCAG contrast rather than perceived brightness. The documentation changes follow the same instinct as the code, spelling out which permissions amount to code execution rather than assuming operators know.
◆ Prediction
Expect the remaining legacy DCIM endpoints to get the same object-level permission treatment, and the accessibility work to continue as numbered items under one issue rather than a separate release — it is being folded into the ordinary patch cadence.
