Dear R Community, blocklength 0.1.4 has been released to CRAN (https://cran.r-project.org/package=blocklength! blocklength is a package with several methods to automatically select the optimal block-length parameter to be used in a block-bootstrap procedure of dependent data, such as stationary time series. The newest version includes two methods. A cross-validation method proposed by Hall, Horowitz, and Jing (1995) <[doi:10.1093/biomet/82.3.561](https://doi.org/10.1093%2Fbiomet%2F82.3.561)> and a non-parametric plug-in method based on spectral density estimation proposed by Politis and White (2004) <[doi:10.1081/ETC-120028836](https://doi.org/10.1081%2FETC-120028836)> including the Patton, Politis, and White (2009) <[doi:10.1080/07474930802459016](https://doi.org/10.1080%2F07474930802459016)> correction with a corresponding set of S3 plot methods. blocklength has also received a fancy hex sticker - thanks to Malina Cheeneebash!
