Dear Hadley,
given you're on the list of R foundation members, I rest assured you have
other channels to ask about the identity of new CRAN staff directly to
those responsible. Their names and paychecks are of no interest to the
general dev world. I can understand CRAN doesn't want to make these n
Dear Hadley,
a follow up mail: You know who they are. Your organisation has the policy
to add all email correspondence with CRAN to the github repo.

That's how I now also found out who they are. One is a doctor. She has a
PhD. The m
I can't speak for Hadley, but my read of his email was that CRAN has
appointed new staff and while extra staff are clearly justified, it
was unclear how they were appointed and whether they had equal
seniority and authority as existing members. Indeed, the fact they use
titles which are clearly jun

I understand that these flags are not portable, and yes, they should
be reported if they are specified in the packages's Makevars* files.

Dear all,
as a CRAN contributor, I am interested in answers to the questions
Hadley raises.
I very much appreciate the huge amount of work the CRAN team do. I get
the impression that hitherto much of it has been funded by "goodwill".
That's not sustainable and it definitely needs to be staffed

Dear John,
I guess Rcmdr::errorCondition() will rarely be called by users (nor
base::errorCondition), hence it should be quite safe if other packages
import correctly into their namespace and use the version their
maintainers import?
From that point of view, there are no changes required in

Dialogue is not always getting what you demand in one step. One form dialogue
with CRAN is re-submitting with CRAN-correspondence stating what one wants.
Also, for a lot of applications being able to turn off messages is critical.

I had a similar experience with a couple of my package updates needing changes.
The background is that I have a family of packages for talking to Microsoft's
