Will the package be available on CRAN again ?

Closed this issue 3 years ago · 2 comments

I first was informed about MoBPS today, and would like to test it. However, I saw it was recently removed from CRAN.

So my question is will it be available on CRAN again in the future ?

I submitted a new version to CRAN yesterday. It should be back on CRAN after screening (~5-10 days).

Alternatively, you can directly install MoBPS from within R by use of the package devtools and following line of code:
devtools::install_github("tpook92/MoBPS", subdir="pkg")

As CRAN does not really allow for as frequent updates as we are doing, I would actually recommend to always use that pipeline instead of installing from CRAN, to avoid using old version. Same goes for RandomFieldsUtils and miraculix when the goal is to speed up computations. Getting miraculix on CRAN is actually even more challening as the newest version is checking for internal settings to make sure computations are as fast as possible (which is somewhat against CRAN policies).

MoBPS (v1.6.64) is back on CRAN
