I would like to be the maintainer. It seems the CRAN check is okay for all platforms, why is it dropped from CRAN?

maelle commented 2 years ago

Thank you @ShixiangWang, you were super fast! I've invited you to a GitHub team that has admin access to this repository.

I don't see an explanation for the CRAN archival, maybe it was at the request of the former maintainer? So it'd be worth re-submitting.

Out of curiosity, are you an user of this package? Thanks again!

ShixiangWang commented 2 years ago

@maelle :) I am not the user. I just read the newsletter from rOpenSci and found this out. I work in bioinformatics, and think this tool may be useful to peers, so it may be worth taking over this and seeing how I can help.

@maelle Thanks for your operation. I will try checking this package and modifying it, so it can be back on CRAN.

maelle commented 2 years ago

Thanks so much!

I've also sent you an invite to rOpenSci slack workspace (where you were not listed) as there's a package-maintenance channel there, but you can choose not to join. Feel free to ping me here or there if you have questions or problems!
