Hello Everyone, Yesterday I successfully updated the dendroTools R package, but afterwards I received an email from CRAN, regarding their policy:
“Dear maintainer, Please see the problems shown on <https://cran.r-project.org/web/checks/check_results_dendroTools.html>. Please correct before 2021-03-22 to safely retain your package on CRAN. It seems we need to remind you of the CRAN policy: 'Packages which use Internet resources should fail gracefully with an informative message if the resource is not available or has changed (and not give a check warning nor error).' This needs correction whether or not the resource recovers. The CRAN Team” After reading some online discussions, e.g. here ( https://community.rstudio.com/t/internet-resources-should-fail-gracefully/49199), I informed myself about possible issues when examples rely on data from the internet. However, all data that I use in my examples/vignettes is built in the package, so I am confused what I should do? Any advice is appreciated.
