ManageEngine RecoveryManager Plus
RecoveryManager Plus keeps widening its backup coverage across the Microsoft identity estate.
A side-by-side editorial comparison of ApexCharts and enderecobr — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
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.
Brazilian address standardisation moves its core to Rust, betting on throughput over pure R
enderecobr standardises Brazilian address fields — street types, neighbourhoods, states, postcodes, house numbers — into consistent forms so records from different registries can be compared. It comes out of the ipeaGIT ecosystem and its API is a family of padronizar_* functions plus one padronizar_enderecos() that runs them together. The 0.5.0 release rewrote those standardisation functions in Rust with a documented speedup.

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.
enderecobr standardises Brazilian address fields — street types, neighbourhoods, states, postcodes, house numbers — into consistent forms so records from different registries can be compared. It comes out of the ipeaGIT ecosystem and its API is a family of padronizar_* functions plus one padronizar_enderecos() that runs them together. The 0.5.0 release rewrote those standardisation functions in Rust with a documented speedup.
Two years of releases were about control and correctness: new formato arguments letting callers choose state names or abbreviations, integers or characters for house numbers, and a run of fixes for numbers mangled by thousands separators. That work settled the semantics. With the behaviour pinned down, the Rust rewrite becomes the natural next move, and the release pairs it with new matching rules for the two messiest fields, neighbourhoods and street names.
The rewrite covers the standardisation functions specifically, so the remaining pure-R paths around them are the likely next targets, alongside continued rule additions for street and neighbourhood variants.
