Plans for keeping openxlsx on CRAN #518

Closed dpc10ster closed 2 years ago

dpc10ster commented 4 years ago

I received an email from CRAN saying that openxlsx will be archived on Sept 25 if issues are not addressed. See partial copy of email from CRAN below.

My package, which depends on openxlsx, and several others, will also be archived.

Would appreciate knowing your plans to fix the cited issues. Your package is very useful and I would hate to lose it.

We have asked for an update fixing the check problems shown at https://cran.r-project.org/web/checks/check_results_openxlsx.html with no update from the maintainer thus far.

Thus, package openxlsx is now scheduled for archival on 2020-09-25, and archiving this will necessitate also archiving its strong reverse dependencies.

Please negotiate the necessary actions.

Could you please create this also at ycphs/openxlsx?

I am maintaining the active fork of the package.
