Mar 1, 2026March 2026: Delivered Tagging System Clarity Enhancement for Multivariate Forecasting in sktime/sktime, deprecating the forecaster scitype:y tag in favor of capability:multivariate to improve clarity and support for multivariate tagging. Implemented backwards-compatible aliasing until the 1.0.0 release and aligned tagging conventions with the existing capability-based naming across estimators. This work is backed by PR #9212 and depends on PR #9216 for first-order merge.

Dec 1, 2025December 2025 monthly summary for sktime/sktime focused on stabilizing dependencies and strengthening CI/test reliability to reduce release blockers and support safe upgrades across PyTorch and Lightning. Delivered two major platform-level improvements: (1) Dependency stability and compatibility for Torch and Lightning with CI safeguards to prevent breaking changes, including temporary bounds and later adjustments to allow newer versions when safe; (2) CI workflow consolidation and test reliability by unifying wheel tests across Unix/Windows, tightening test execution and import error handling, and improving test VM behavior. These changes reduce risk of serialization/CI breakage, shorten debugging loops, and improve cross-platform consistency. Overall impact: faster, safer upgrade path for users, higher confidence in releases, and more robust development workflow. Technologies/skills demonstrated: Python, CI/CD (GitHub Actions), dependency management, cross-platform testing, wheel packaging, robust import error handling, and test orchestration.
