I think the "relevant" part is that it was another A320 overrun in -RA conditions with reverser #2 INOP and that ended up to the left from the runway end. The difference is that no casualties, basically because the runway and stopway were 2765 m long.
The report linked by amrchairpilot was a "Factual Data Report", so no conclusions there. The main causes to the Taipei accident are in the
final report as follows:

1. When the aircraft was below 20 ft RA and Retard warnings were sounded,
the pilot flying didn’t pull thrust lever 2 to Idle detent which caused the
ground spoilers were not deployed after touchdown though they were at
Armed position, therefore the auto braking system was not triggered.
Moreover, when the auto thrust was changed to manual operation mode
automatically after touchdown, the thrust lever 2 was remained at 22.5
degrees which caused the Engine 2 still had an larger thrust output
(EPR1.08) than idle position’s. Thereupon, the aircraft was not able to
complete deceleration within the residual length of the runway, and
deviated from the runway before came to a full stop, even though the
manual braking was actuated by the pilot 13 seconds after touchdown.

2. The pilot monitoring announced “spoiler” automatically when the aircraft
touched down without checking the ECAM display first according to SOP
before made the announcement, as such the retraction of ground spoilers
was ignored. (2.3.3)
