mpactr vs Traefik

mpactr filters mass-spectrometry peak tables — removing contaminants, ion duplicates and low-reproducibility features before downstream metabolomics analysis — with a data.table and Rcpp core. Development is slow and the recent releases are small. The May pair both address the same friction: column names and imported table names arriving in inconsistent case and failing to match.

The package is stabilizing its input contract rather than growing its filtering methods. Metadata column names are now forced lowercase inside import_data() regardless of how the file was written, imported peak_tables names not present in the injection column are lowercased too, and get_meta_data() was renamed to get_metadata() in the same pass. Before that the work was infrastructural — Rcpp introduced to speed up filtering, data.table moved from Depends to Imports, and memory errors cleared so the package passes Valgrind and both sanitizers. Note the earliest entry compares against a v1.0.0 tag that precedes 0.1.0 in the repository, so version ordering in this feed is not reliable.

The case-normalization work has now touched both metadata columns and peak table names across two consecutive releases, which suggests the input-matching problem is not fully closed and a third pass is plausible. Nothing in these entries points to new filtering methods.
