There are few issues I can see here.
1) Because the page is just http://
, you need to check the Use insecure connection
when creating project to even be able to access it, this is why the requests
example failed for you.
2) I assume the issue is in PHP rendering of the page. The requests
doesn't do a rendering of PHP file. I tried it with curl http://www.researchandtechnology.net/bcif/index.php
and it returns curl: (52) Empty reply from server
. This is why even with Use insecure connection
it doesn't match any regex you set (I tried that).
The best option here is to find other place where you can obtain the versions than this page as it's really strange and it's still HTTP only. I assume the project didn't had any update in last 10 years, at least I can't find anything else about it.
My browser can access the page fine, which is why I'm a little confused.

The documentation misled me-- still doesn't work with insecure connection enabled

I looked, couldn't find anything else. Maybe some sort of proxy site that will put this into regular text? Doesn't feel great...
It seems that the tooltip is wrong, it's meant for HTTP as well.
My browser shows the page correctly as well, but browsers have plenty of interpreters in them.
I can't do much about this on Anitya side. I'm not sure if the project is even a good candidate for tracking as I don't see any history of versions and it seems that the last version released is few years old.
Attempting to follow the process as set out in the documentation like so,
Presumably this is the same error happening when Anitya tries to access the URL.
