   We generally follow the [tidyverse version support 
policy](https://www.tidyverse.org/blog/2019/04/r-version-support/), which is 
the most recent 5 versions. Many enterprise users of R don't upgrade versions 
eagerly so they can be stuck on older versions longer than CRAN's testing 
window.
   
   If there is an easy way to get new enough cmake into the R `windows-cpp` job 
so that we can keep building with the R 4.0 toolchain, that would be ideal. I 
don't see why we couldn't do that.
