Neal Richardson reassigned ARROW-3204:
--------------------------------------
Assignee: Neal Richardson (was: Romain François)
> [R] Release to CRAN
> -------------------
>
> Key: ARROW-3204
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-3204
> Project: Apache Arrow
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: R
> Reporter: James Lamb
> Assignee: Neal Richardson
> Priority: Critical
> Labels: release
> Fix For: 0.14.0
>
>
> As of [ARROW-1325|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-1325], the
> project contains a minimal working R package that takes advantage of R's
> built-in support for calling C++ code and uses Rcpp for added support.
> Though the exact public interface of the package hasn't been developed yet
> (so this issue may be running before we walk), one major feature in its
> development will be release to [CRAN|https://cran.r-project.org/], the
> official package repository for the R language.
> Completing this story would mean:
> * Getting source code to state where [R CMD
> CHECK|https://www.r-bloggers.com/how-i-learned-to-stop-worrying-and-love-r-cmd-check/]
> passes with 0 ERRORS, 0 WARNINGS, and 0 NOTES
> * Setting up build process for source and precompiled binary packages (see
> [data.table|https://github.com/Rdatatable/data.table] and
> [XGBoost|https://github.com/dmlc/xgboost] as examples of packages that do
> this)
> * Submission to CRAN and acceptance of the first release
>
> Distribution via CRAN would be a much more natural fit for most R users'
> workflows than the current build-from-source workflow, and comes with all the
> other benefits of package managers (e.g. version pegging, easy distribution
> of platform-specific binaries).
