Hello, All:What changes are being considered / planned in the management and funding of CRAN and R-Forge to handle the near-exponential growth in the number of packages? I ask, because the developers for fda were asked to cut the test time on CRAN to below 5 seconds per *.Rd file. After spending a few days on this, we reluctantly eliminated tests using if(!CRAN()){...} in the \examples. Restricting test times and similar changes will keep the current system running a little longer, but would not seem to be adequate long term.
You're writing to the wrong place: you should be asking CRAN this question. Their email is c...@r-project.org. They generally don't discuss their operations in R-devel.
