It's marked as a "patch release" (also true)., but unlike for 1.0.2 and 1.0.1 no longer marked as a "new package". I'm just curious way.

I'm confused, it was merged but I can't add the package. Maybe I have outdated registry (I would have thought checked in the REPL in that case; at least after opening new julia).

Is this possibly because registering as a "patch" version, not with the "new package" label, which I never understood why missing? The package is in the main file, so I'm not sure what might be missing here in the registry if anything.

I can do:

using Pkg; Pkg.add(url = "https://github.com/cvigilv/SimSpread.jl.git", rev = "develop")

after doing that, then removing, I can actually sort of install (at least got the prompt, the error may be related to the above, though I get same in 1.8 which was supposedly clean):
