BayesianMCPMod vs RabbitMQ
A side-by-side editorial comparison of BayesianMCPMod and RabbitMQ — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
BayesianMCPMod vs RabbitMQ: at a glance
What is BayesianMCPMod?
A Bayesian dose-finding package extends from continuous endpoints to binary ones
BayesianMCPMod implements the Bayesian form of MCP-Mod for dose-finding trials, combining a multiple-comparison test for dose-response signal with model fitting for dose selection. Version 1.3.0 added functions and vignettes for the binary endpoint case, opening the package beyond the continuous endpoints it was built around, and 1.3.2 followed with Firth's penalized regression to handle separation in those binary fits. The same 1.3.0 release let assessDesign() accept custom simulated data and custom model estimates, which moves simulation control out of the package and into the user's hands.
What is RabbitMQ?
Two parallel trains, and the 'maintenance' label is now hiding real feature work
RabbitMQ is maintaining 4.2.x and 4.3.x side by side, cutting matching patches into both on the same day, and both trains raised their floor to Erlang/OTP 27. Most of the window is correctness work in the Raft-backed subsystems — quorum queues losing metrics after a restart, leaders committing log entries too optimistically, classic queue index paths accumulating slashes, topic bindings with empty routing keys matching everything. The newest 4.3.5, however, is labelled a maintenance release while carrying encrypted management-UI login tokens, a new authentication logging category, ETag support on the definitions endpoint, and a self-deleting Shovel TTL.

A Bayesian dose-finding package extends from continuous endpoints to binary ones
◆ Current state
BayesianMCPMod implements the Bayesian form of MCP-Mod for dose-finding trials, combining a multiple-comparison test for dose-response signal with model fitting for dose selection. Version 1.3.0 added functions and vignettes for the binary endpoint case, opening the package beyond the continuous endpoints it was built around, and 1.3.2 followed with Firth's penalized regression to handle separation in those binary fits. The same 1.3.0 release let assessDesign() accept custom simulated data and custom model estimates, which moves simulation control out of the package and into the user's hands.
◆ Where it's heading
Each release has widened the estimands and data shapes the framework accepts rather than changing its statistical core. 1.0.2 added non-monotonic beta and quadratic model shapes; 1.1.0 introduced getMED() for the minimally efficacious dose and parallel execution through the future framework; 1.2.0 switched the posterior and contrast functions from a standard deviation vector to a full covariance matrix and supported non-zero off-diagonals in the MCP step. The binary endpoint work is the same pattern applied to the outcome type, and the Firth addition shows the follow-through of a maintainer who has hit the separation problem in practice.
◆ Prediction
Expect the binary endpoint arm to keep filling in - more diagnostics and design assessment coverage matching what the continuous case already has - since 1.3.2 addressed a specific estimation failure rather than adding a new capability.

Two parallel trains, and the 'maintenance' label is now hiding real feature work
◆ Current state
RabbitMQ is maintaining 4.2.x and 4.3.x side by side, cutting matching patches into both on the same day, and both trains raised their floor to Erlang/OTP 27. Most of the window is correctness work in the Raft-backed subsystems — quorum queues losing metrics after a restart, leaders committing log entries too optimistically, classic queue index paths accumulating slashes, topic bindings with empty routing keys matching everything. The newest 4.3.5, however, is labelled a maintenance release while carrying encrypted management-UI login tokens, a new authentication logging category, ETag support on the definitions endpoint, and a self-deleting Shovel TTL.
◆ Where it's heading
The bug pattern remains the tell: nearly every fix is in quorum queues, Khepri or Raft, which is where RabbitMQ moved its metadata and durability story after 4.3.0 removed Mnesia and partition-handling strategies outright. Layered on top is a steady tightening of the operational perimeter — protocol parsers rejecting malformed input strictly across AMQP 1.0, MQTT 5.0 and STOMP, pre-authentication frame limits on stream connections, HTTP API endpoints validating node membership, and headers that stop disclosing supported methods. Feature work is arriving inside patch releases rather than waiting for a minor.
◆ Prediction
Expect the 4.2.x train to slow toward end-of-life while 4.3.x patches keep absorbing both Khepri edge cases and security-surface work. The encrypted login token, currently opt-in behind a shared cluster secret, is the kind of setting that gets promoted to a default once rolling-upgrade friction is behind it.
