Review comment:
> For more on what’s in the 1.0.0 R package, see the [Java changelog][5].
If there is a Java changelog, please add a link to it below and give it a
higher number here (5 is already taken). Also change where this says "R
package".
If you do this as a "suggestion" comment, I can just merge it here.
