Description

As far as I can tell this is only really affecting {orbital} which is located:

R: https://github.com/tidymodels/orbital
Python: https://github.com/posit-dev/orbital

Right now the page only list the python version, https://opensource.posit.co/software/orbital/ but all the articles links to R versions
