Open jhollist opened 1 year ago
There are no listed reverse dependency packages on CRAN, the affected functions are listed on line 272 of https://github.com/r-spatial/evolution/blob/main/pkgapi_by_pkg_230613.csv, so not imposssible to carry out. @jhollist do you have other channels to reach out to package users? If not, maybe a quick release adding a startup message asking for a new maintainer?
@rsbivand I have a few other avenues, but so far no takers. I like the idea of adding the startup message. I'll get that out this week and see if it results in any takers!
Thanks for the suggestion!
All, I wrote the
quickmapr
package quite some time ago to facilitate interactive mapping in R using base graphics. It is sort of a throwback to Arcedit, if anyone on here remembers that! I wrote this long beforesf
andterra
and before many of the javascript based slippymap tools had been ported to R. From what I can tell it does not have a huge user based (e.g. ~10 downloads a day) so I am honestly considering archiving the package.I thought I would at least throw the question out there to see if anyone is interested in taking over maintenance. The only pressing task is converting to
sf
andterra
and droppingrgdal
,rgeos
, etc.I'll let this issue ride for a few weeks. At that point I will probably move forward with archiving.
Thanks!
