Hi all,
I'm new to contributing to r-devel. The trunk of r-devel right now includes
a `check_rust()` function for adherence to CRAN's evolving rust policy (see
commit
https://github.com/r-devel/r-svn/commit/6114d4126434c056b476cbc5db2657536c153d9a
).
As it stands R 4.4.2 will codify CRAN policy on Rust as the R language's
policy and will have deep implications for the language moving forward. It
would make *any* package that uses Rust to adhere to their policies.
R 4.4.2 will be released from the R-4-4-branch, not from the trunk. The
change you have pointed to is only on the trunk, which would eventually
become the next minor release, probably 4.5.0. Anything on the trunk is
subject to change.
See https://svn.r-project.org/R/branches/R-4-4-branch/src vs
https://svn.r-project.org/R/trunk
I've submitted an issue as well as a patch at
https://bugs.r-project.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18806.
What is the process for submitting the bug and patch for review?
See https://www.r-project.org/bugs.html
But in short, submitting a PR to bugzilla about this as you have done is
fine. Now it is the turn for R Core to consider if this should be a
CRAN-only check or not.
Best
Tomas
