Dev plans?

Hey @mahmoud This sounds like a cool idea! Your talk on this reminded me of https://python.libhunt.com/ Do you have any dev plans for this? Do you know of other projects...

Fixes #540

Better and more explicit Pydantic error messages

**Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.** The Pydantic errors can be very annoying to debug when the error messages are not explicit or (as often seen)...

Performing I/O on instantiation

## Expected Behavior `FeatureStore` didn't use to perform any I/O on instantiation. This should be the expected behavior. As far as I can tell, all other abstractions follow this convention....

[BUG] Why do we `fit_transform` the post-transformers in `TransformedTargetForecaster.fit()`?

4

I would not call this a "bug" necessarily but I am wondering why we need to call `fit_transform` for all post-transformers during the `.fit()` of a `TransformedTargetForecaster.fit`. https://github.com/sktime/sktime/blob/b6e1d5dc190bd765b3979c25ec3d0d46d2d4b8f7/sktime/forecasting/compose/_pipeline.py#L1011-L1013 It's a...

Cool example to add to the docs: https://morphocode.com/location-time-urban-data-visualization/#row-1497426575  The data source referenced in the original post returns a 404. After a quick search, this is likely the new equivalent...

The new release notes are not rendered correctly in the GitHub releases. See [v0.1.25](https://github.com/tpvasconcelos/ridgeplot/releases/tag/0.1.25) for instance. A simple solution would be to hard-code some regex logic in `extract_latest_release_notes.py` to deal...

Use a different KDE implementation

1

We have experienced some issues with statsmodels' KDE implementation (see in-line comments in `ridgeplot._kde.estimate_density_trace()`. - statsmodels uses scipy under the hood. This could be a good alternative to investigate. [pandas.Series.plot.kde](https://pandas.pydata.org/docs/reference/api/pandas.Series.plot.kde.html#pandas.Series.plot.kde)...

Update "Release process" docs

Update the ["Release process"](https://ridgeplot.readthedocs.io/en/stable/development/contributing.html#release-process) docs to reflect the current status.

Fix `test_regressions` tests failing in GitHub Actions

1

I had to mark the `test_regressions` tests with XFAIL when running the checks in CI because they are currently failing when being run in GitHub Actions. See [here](https://github.com/tpvasconcelos/ridgeplot/actions/runs/7378769595/job/20074296603) and [here](https://github.com/tpvasconcelos/ridgeplot/actions/runs/7378769595/job/20074296398)....
