I am not sure where to post this. I am looking at the NEWS file here: http://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/base/NEWS.R-3.1.2.html And the links at the bottom seem to be broken. This link: http://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/NEWS.2 Should be this: http://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/NEWS.2 CHANGES in previous versions - Older news can be fou...

I think Kurt has this in hand since the same issue affected src/base/NEWS.html. The fix seems to be just not to copy the html formatted NEWS to the file distribution folders and have any links in there point to doc/manuals/r-release/NEWS.html instead. The relative links to the parent directory would be a pain to sort out. (Cc: Kurt, as he may not be aware that there is...

...to post this. Maybe you could try to contact the CRAN maintainer by e-mail. (E-mail: you know the thing people did before they "posted" everything :-) ;-)) but I agree that it is not easy to find e-mail addresses nowadays..

Are there any plans for CRAN to support NEWS files in markdown? Bit of a hassle to go the the package?s Github (or other like) site to read NEWS.

That is more or less what I had been doing for a long time (having both NEWS.md and NEWS), but decided not to do it any more last year. In fact, you can easily convert NEWS.md to a NEWS file that R's news() can understand, e.g. https://github.com/yihui/knitr/blob/947ad5fc94/Makefile#L8-L10 (if your NEWS.md is like this https://raw.githubusercontent.com/yihui/knitr/947ad...

Hello, i simplified have a news model, a news category model and a news controller. my _news.rhtml partial renders a single news entry. in my controller there are the actions show and show_category. if the "show" action is called, a single news item is rendered through my partial with no errors. if the "show_cate...

Modules are exactly what I needed to figure out, but once I started my app over again putting my controller under a module folder, I can''t get my basic app going. Basically I have a News app, where we will post PR and other articles of interest. It was working fine with a model/controller combo of news/index for the public and news/admin for the administrators. Keep in mind this was the very early stages of development. So I knew I wanted more components in the admin area, so...

It's disappointing that many packages do not have a NEWS file. Perhaps CRAN should require NEWS or CHANGELOG, as long as the system is being reformed to potentially accommodate markdown anyway. -Thomas Thomas J.

readNEWS() states: Read R's ?NEWS? file or a similarly formatted one. This is an experimental feature, new in R 2.4.0 and may change in several ways and news() also indicates that this tool is supposed to work with non-R news files. However, I've not been able to get readNEWS to r...

@Gavin: My aim was to point out that the ability to mix developer-facing documentation with user-facing documentation is not a good reason to want to support md. I agree with Duncan that links to within a package would be useful (not sure if NEWS.Rd supports this). I'm not so convinced that package authors that do not even add a plain text NEWS file will create a NEWS.md file. Adding NEWS.md means we now have three ways to specify the NEWS: - a plain text NEWS file; following the GNU recommendations - NEWS.Rd - NEWS.md Would it not...

Hi, I m very new to Ruby. I bought a book "Ruby on Rails" and I think I understand some concepts. My question is : Is there a way to not use "Cookies" or "Sessions Variables" to keep some information about the user. I ask this question because I would like to prevent some cases where the user browser won''t accept cookies. I m from Asp 3.0, and I

I would be surprised if many package maintainer built their NEWS/README files with pandoc. They just look at them at GitHub (or another similar service).
