Hello! I discovered your package through JuliaHub.com. I have been working on actuarial-related packages through the nacsent JuliaActuary org on Github. If you are interested in collaborating, discussing, etc. I'd be happy to chat here, on the Julia Slack #actuary channel, or via email (my Github Username). For example, I am interested in interfaces to mortality tables, and this package seems to fit data to a mortality model and then provide an interface to using the resulting survival model. I would be interested in making a PR to this package to make it interface with MortalityTables.jl.

Yes, I wrote the package while studying the works of Riggs and Juckett/Rosenberg on ageing and causes of death (as noted in the README), and it contains functions to fit mortality and survival curves calculated from raw data and calculate cause probabilities. It sounds interesting to have such interfaces.
