[Rd] Has the changelog for R-devel and R-patched moved?
Hello. There used to be changelog of sorts for R-devel [1] and R-release [2]. Neither have been updated since 2015-07-24. Have these moved elsewhere, or are they no longer being updated? Thank you, Avi [1] <http://developer.r-project.org/blosxom.cgi/R-devel/NEWS> [2] <http://developer.r-project.org/blosxom.cgi/R-3-2-branch/NEWS>

If the functionality is easily restored, it will probably be restored soon; if not, probably somewhat later. Meanwhile, the link to the latest NEWS file (one line above!) appears to be up-to-yesterday's date. -pd> > Thank you, > > Avi > > [1] <http://developer.r-project.org/blosxom.cgi/R-devel/NEWS> > [2] <http://developer.r-project.org/blosxom.cgi/R-3-2-branch/NEWS> > > ______________________________________________ > R-devel at r-project.org mailing list > https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel-- Peter Dalgaard, Professor, Center for Statistics, Copenhagen Business School Solbjerg Plads 3, 2000 Frederiksberg, Denmark Phone: (+45)38153501 Office: A 4.23 Email: pd.mes at cbs.dk Priv: PDalgd at gmail.com

The reason the changlog is prefereable is that the NEWS is cumulative, and does not indicate changes between R-patched_2015-08-26 and R-patched_2015-08-27. Whereas more information can be gleaned from the changelog entries. Obviously, this is of very low priority, and if the server refuses to acknowledge Dr. Murdoch's well-placed steel-toe reminders, getting it restarted should be deferred as long as is necessary. 8-) Thank you, Avi
