Nathalie @tuxette, thanks for putting this together. I did some touch-ups, mostly in formatting and documentation. (Disclaimer: I didn't try to actually run the action, though.) I just wondered whether it is true that the task-view input still has the required: true specification. I thought we were able to avoid that by computing it from the repository name? But possibly I'm not understanding correctly how exactly this is processed.

Feel free to merge the PR yourself if everything is in order (and I didn't mess up anything).

@zeileis :

I did not see the task-view input when I ran my tests: it should be deleted (but I'll check it before I do it, not tonight though);
I added the standard "author" field in the yml file;
I'll merge the PR when the first point is checked. Thanks for your feedback and corrections!

OK, good, thanks Nathalie @tuxette. Additionally, I think it would be fair to add "CRAN Task View Initiative" as the second author because we did a few improvements.

I removed the section on the task-view input and retested it. I think it's OK now and I'm merging this branch.

I forgot this remark. It's done now.
