Good morning,

Duncan has announced that he steps back from the maintenance of Rtools.
Where will I find the new Rtools toolchain that complements Microsofts 
R-version?

Just take the Rtools. Microsoft uses our toolchain as far as I know.
Also note that we will probably continue to build Windows binaries (and have never stopped doing so).

Best,
Uwe Ligges



Kind regards

Jens

Betreff: Re: [R] R 3.4.2 is released

I've just finished the Windows build of R 3.4.2.  It will make it to
CRAN and its mirrors over the next few hours.

This is the last binary release that I will be producing.  I've been
building them for about 15 years, and it's time to retire.  Builds using
different tools and scripts are available from
https://mran.microsoft.com/download/.  I'll be putting my own scripts on
CRAN soon in case anyone wants to duplicate them.

Nightly builds of R-patched and R-devel will continue to run on
autopilot for the time being, without maintenance.

I will also be retiring from maintenance of the Rtools collection.
