I frequently receive examples of problematic metadata (misplaced or malformed author, title, series, series index, tags, ISBN) attached to PMs that my user base sends me. I analyze them, add/change Scrubbing Rules as necessary, and issue a new release. Hence, the frequency of new releases is directly proportional to the frequency of new problematic metadata examples that I receive from my users.
This is an add-on with a plugin for its user interface. In no way can it be compared to "normal" plugins that use standard Calibre and rarely need updates because what they do is rather static. This add-on is the opposite of static, which is reflected in its update frequency.
I also update it periodically for new authors found on Amazon and Wikipedia, which are used to sniff out author names that are not where they belong in the metadata. The add-on already has over 16,000 global author names, and I am working on another 3,000 that I will include in an upcoming new release.
In summary, my hard-core users are not amused by, but rather thankful for, the frequent releases. Even so, I am happy that my add-on can provide some amusement to brighten the day of others.
Best wishes,
