Your new package pull request does not meet the guidelines for auto-merging. Please make sure that you have read the General registry README and the AutoMerge guidelines. The following guidelines were not met:

• Repo URL does not end with /name.jl.git, where name is the package name

Note that the guidelines are only required for the pull request to be merged automatically. However, it is strongly recommended to follow them, since otherwise the pull request needs to be manually reviewed and merged by a human.

After you have fixed the AutoMerge issues, simple retrigger Registrator, which will automatically update this pull request. You do not need to change the version number in your Project.toml file (unless of course the AutoMerge issue is that you skipped a version number, in which case you should change the version number).

If you do not want to fix the AutoMerge issues, please post a comment explaining why you would like this pull request to be manually merged. Then, send a message to the #pkg-registration channel in the Julia Slack to ask for help. Include a link to this pull request.

Since you are registering a new package, please make sure that you have also read the package naming guidelines: https://julialang.github.io/Pkg.jl/dev/creating-packages/#Package-naming-guidelines-1

[noblock] LSurvival.jl is a better name

I also prefer LSurvival.jl. The module was named LSurvival until this morning. It did not auto-merge because it was too similar to Survival.jl.

If I rename to "LSurvival.jl" - can I request a manual merge?

I re-submitted under "LSurvival" here:
#91198

No guarantees, there seem to be a lot of these survival packages... why not contribute to the other ones instead?

[alexpkeil1]

Good point, but there wasn't a good path with any of the existing repositories. I looked at Survival.jl it looked like it would have required a significant re-factoring to accomodate some features I consider necessary in applied work (e.g. preferred methods to handle tied event times via the Efron partial likelihood, observation weights, residuals, and handling of left truncation) of the main package functions.

AcceleratedFailure.jl that is being ported into Survival.jl, but it has the same limitations. EventHistory.jl hasn't been updated in 5 years and lacks Efron's partial likelihood. SurvivalAnalysis.jl looks like it's not being updated and is missing a lot of basic functionality (e.g. Cox models)

[rafaqz]

If you plan to be more comprehensive than any of the others and effectively replace them, its ok. But often in reality we just end up with 4 incomplete packages instead
