Dear R developers, With the release of R 2.5.0 on 2007-04-24 CRAN will remove its 'Devel' subdirectory (originally intended to distribute "development" versions of packages, but now apparently no longer needed and/or used). Packages in the 'Devel' are which do not pass R CMD check without warnings or errors will be moved to the Archive. In two cases, the current maintainers have indicated that this is the preferred approach, with one package scheduled for resurrection eventually. In two cases, we have not received feedback from the maintainers as listed in the package DESCRIPTION metadata: gllm: David Duffy <davidD at qimr.edu.au> runStat: David Brahm <brahm at alum.mit.edu> If anyone knows how to contact the maintainers, pls let us know. The maintainer of 'ensemble' has suggested to look for a new maintainer. In case you are interested in taking over maintaining one of ensemble gllm runStat pls let us know. Best -k
