Once r-base is uploaded to unstable, no other R | package will be able to migrate to testing until r-base itself | migrates, and r-base itself will not be able to migrate until every R | package has been rebuilt successfully (or removed from testing). | | When we are ready, someone from the release team will give you the | go-ahead in reply to this bug.

None, ex ante, but I can't speak for all packages. Some can be behind. I happen to know that 'team dplyr' at RStudio is planning a release and I saw in (my upstream work for Rcpp) reverse-depends checking for Rcpp (new version pending at CRAN) that a few packages are currently borked. | I seem to recall upstream has some nice CI pages, would you please | link to them here? Sure. Just how we have eg bugs.debian.org/NUMBERHERE we have a general per-package page at CRAN so http://cloud.r-project.org/package=Rcpp links to Rcpp's page, and it has a link to results which has a "mechanical" URL as well albeit less clean: https://cloud.r-project.org/web/checks/check_results_Rcpp.html We can s/Rcpp/AnyPackage/ here. Note that this may need capitalization so translation back from Debian packages is 'tricky' (but we have URL info in most debian/control files now). So eg my RcppArmadillo package has https://cloud.r-project.org/web/checks/check_results_RcppArmadillo.html There are some R packages that scrabe this info on a per-maintainer basis. foghorn is one. I have a simpler function checkCRANStatus() in my dang package (not in Debian, it's just a minor grabbag of random utilities).
