I think it already is as I have the old one as parentrepo

yet my commit end up here. So methinks what you ask for already happend.
You can check that too by adding the (correct, if I may, with two y
not one as above) URL into a webbrowser: https:// github dot com slash jyypma slash nloptr will get you here. So feel free to close this (unless I am halluzinating and missed something here)
Huh, you're right (not that that's surprising). Either I'm dreaming or this has changed fairly recently - when the CRAN brouhaha started it took me a while to get unconfused/find my way to this repo.
Yes, it was in the last few days, it also caught me by (very friendly) surprise as I like you had made myself a mental note to follow up on this. The way that moved or renamed repos get auto-forwarding links is one of the nicer (if quiet) GitHub features.
This is low priority, but it would be a good idea - once the dust has settled on the current CRAN release - to do something to reduce confusion/clarify that this is now the up-to-date version of the package repo. (IMO doesn't really matter whether that's done by merging this fork back into @jyypma's repo, or that repo gets a prominent notice in its README file directing people here, or ...)
