I am preparing my package for the release of R 3.0.0 and thinking about the 
suggestion (from Duncan Murdoch) to maintain two versions of the package 
temporarily. Since my package contains knitr-compiled vignettes, I need to 
restrict it to 3.0.0 going forward. I'd like to submit a final version for 2.x 
that will not be updated but compiles the vignettes in the old manner; and a 
version for 3.x. My thought is that they will have the same version number, 
with the only difference being how the vignette is compiled and the DESCRIPTION 
files.

Is it possible that they have the same version number; or, should I send two 
updates simultaneously with successive version numbers, flagging one as restricted 
to R >3.0.0?



The one for R >= 3.0.0 should have a larger version number and goes into a separate part of the repository (and moved to the main part once R-3.0.0 is released), the other one should have a dependency on R < 3.0.0.

Best,

Thanks,
