# PortfolioOptimisers.jl v0.14.2 Release

## Breaking changes

- Lots of quality of life breaking releases since the inaugural post.
  - Better names for abstract and concrete types.
  - Shorter and unambiguous fieldnames.

## Bug fixes

- Lots of minor and quality of life bug fixes. Most don’t affect any results aside from disallowing certain types/values that would error further down the chain rather than at instantiation.
- One pretty big bug one relating to high order prior statistics using low order factor prior statistics.

## New features

- New risk measures and formulations.
- Enable existing measures on more optimisation types.

## Docs

- Lots of new API docs, including instructions on defining interfaces for new estimators and algorithms.
- A few new examples.
- Better readmes.

## Project maturity

- Stabler API, still expect breaking changes with `v0.X` releases.

## Roadmap

I don’t have a timeline or a serious plan, but there are a few features I’d like the package to have. In order of desirability:

1. Cross validation prediction.
2. Pipelines, i.e. data validation → optimisation → prediction → post-processing
3. Report generation.  
3a. Better plots.  
3b. Perhaps excel output.
4. A non-shitpost logo (though tbh I kinda like that it’s a shitpost).

## Feedback and contributions welcome

The package is quite functional, but it is missing a lot of docs and sample use. If anyone out there is using/wants to use the package I’d love to hear about how it can be improved and would love some contributions/help with implementation and design.
