Package 'fslr' has been archived on CRAN for more than 60 days #6

Closed statmath-it closed 2 years ago

statmath-it commented 2 years ago

Package fslr is currently listed in CRAN Task View MedicalImaging but the package has actually been archived for more than 60 days on CRAN. Often this indicates that the package is currently not sufficiently actively maintained and should be excluded from the task view.

Alternatively, you might also consider reaching out to the authors of the package and encourage (or even help) them to bring the package back to CRAN.

In any case, the situation should be resolved in the next four weeks. If the package does not seem to be brought back to CRAN, please exclude it from the task view.

I'm happy to take a look at this (plus issues #4 and #5), and contact the maintainers.

Thanks, Jon. I'm surprised this particular package has been archived, but then I let one of my medical imaging packages slip off of CRAN too a year or so ago.

jonclayden commented 2 years ago

The root cause seems to be neurobase being archived, which seems even more surprising. I'll check in with John.

Already contacted John, but did not receive an answer, yet.

jonclayden commented 2 years ago

OK, thanks Karsten. I'll leave this issue, then, until we have an update from him on his plans.

I corresponded with John M yesterday and my oro.nifti package has caused neurobase to crash. I have modified some code and v0.11.3 of oro.nifti has been accepted by CRAN (Uwe) this morning.

Package fslr is back on CRAN, so no further action is needed.
