citeme vs rjdqa: at a glance
What is citeme?
Citation metadata machinery breaks out of INBO's checklist package to stand on its own.
citeme handles citation metadata for research software and organisations — building citation files, validating ORCIDs, RORs, licenses and URLs, and prompting for the pieces interactively. It was extracted from the checklist package in 0.1.0 and has spent the four releases since fleshing out organisational roles, most visibly publishers.
What is rjdqa?
rjdqa keeps refining one screen: the seasonal adjustment quality dashboard
rjdqa builds quality assessment dashboards for seasonal adjustment models produced by JDemetra+, aimed at official statisticians reviewing adjusted series. Essentially all development goes into two functions, simple_dashboard() and its denser variant simple_dashboard2(). Version 0.1.6 adds parameters to append observations to the forecast and to control whether the residual trading-days test is printed, defaulting to monthly series only, plus outlier table layout work and user-defined calendar regressor support in sc_dashboard().

Citation metadata machinery breaks out of INBO's checklist package to stand on its own.
◆ Current state
citeme handles citation metadata for research software and organisations — building citation files, validating ORCIDs, RORs, licenses and URLs, and prompting for the pieces interactively. It was extracted from the checklist package in 0.1.0 and has spent the four releases since fleshing out organisational roles, most visibly publishers.
◆ Where it's heading
Development is running in tight monthly increments along two tracks: modelling who is attached to a piece of research software, and smoothing the interactive prompts that collect it. The publisher role added in 0.1.1 propagated through validation, community detection and YAML handling over the next two releases, which is how this package tends to land a concept — introduce the class field, then follow it everywhere it needs to reach.
◆ Prediction
Expect the interactive ask_* family to keep growing alongside whatever metadata field is being modelled next, and further alignment with the checklist package it was carved out of.

rjdqa keeps refining one screen: the seasonal adjustment quality dashboard
◆ Current state
rjdqa builds quality assessment dashboards for seasonal adjustment models produced by JDemetra+, aimed at official statisticians reviewing adjusted series. Essentially all development goes into two functions, simple_dashboard() and its denser variant simple_dashboard2(). Version 0.1.6 adds parameters to append observations to the forecast and to control whether the residual trading-days test is printed, defaulting to monthly series only, plus outlier table layout work and user-defined calendar regressor support in sc_dashboard().
◆ Where it's heading
The package has converged on a single deliverable and is tuning it against reviewer practice. Each release adds a parameter that lets the analyst include or exclude one element of the dashboard, or adjusts how densely information is packed into the fixed space of the layout. The td_effect default — print the test only for monthly series — is characteristic: the knowledge about when a diagnostic is meaningful is being encoded into the tool rather than left to the reader.
◆ Prediction
The pattern of adding one toggle per diagnostic per release points at the same thing again, most likely another test given a conditional default, rather than a new dashboard function alongside the two that exist.
