One issue I have with this is that it doesn't point to the original GitHub repositories of the packages, so you end up with additional repositories on Github in Gabor's name that have nothing to do with the actual Github repositories of the packages. I understand that it's technically necessary, but I fear it will lead to a lot of confusion... On May 24, 2015, at 5:44 AM, Rainer M

Thanks for letting us know about the new website. Some comments: - Download statistics: Where are they from? CRAN does not monitor downloads generally, maybe some selected mirrors do. - Section "Recently updated" can only hold 9 packages, but frequently more than 9 get accepted even within an hour, hence not sure if this makes sense. - The links "Download R" and "CRAN

I cannot speak for other package authors, but for all my own packages, I have provided the BugReports field in DESCRIPTION that points to the Github issues page. You can probably use this field to check if a package is on Github or not. If it is, you may just fork the original repo instead of creating a new one from the CRAN package. I'm not sure how technically difficult it would be for you.

Dear R developers, I am seeking advice on some $subject matter. My package will have an update soon, that is not backward compatible with the current version. It will likely break much of the existing code. Many (~50) packages depend on 'igraph' and they, too, will most probably break with the new version. My intended solution is, that I create a snapshot of the current package, under

That's true, but issues, checkouts, comments, credit, etc should all be going to the original repo. Anything else seems grossly unfair to the package author(s). This issue is exacerbated even further when the the author isn't developing the package on github at all, and github users may unintentionally begin to view the forks as the actual canonical sources for the package. Also, the

Hi Consider the following code > x <- rep(1:13, 13) > y <- 1:3 I want to select all elements in x which are equal to 1, 2 or 3. I know that I could use > sel <- x==y[1] | x==y[2] | x==y[3] > x[sel] to obtain the values, but in my analysis, the y-vector is thousands of elements long. Is there any way, that I can do that easily? Thanks Rainer -- Rainer M. Krug, Dipl.

Hi Dirk, Thanks for the explamnayion - Debian is running in a VM (and nothing really installed on it) , and I think the easiest is for me just to install Debian 10 and to use that one.

Hi I have a table called npl containing results of simulations. It contains about 19000 entries and the structure looks like this: NoPlants sim run year DensPlants 1 6 lng_cs99_renosterbos 1 4 0.00192 . . . it has 43 different entries for sim and year goes from 1 to 100, and run from 1 to 5. I would like to calculate the mean of DensPlants for each
