Dear R Developers,

the following CRAN packages do not cleanly pass R CMD check for quite
some time now and did not have any updates since the time
given. Several attempts by the CRAN admins to contact the package
maintainers had no success.

norm, 1.0-9, 2002-05-07, WARN
sound, 0.6, 2002-08-31, WARN

Hmm, does anybody use sound extensively or does anybody use its data structures?


If not: tuneR contains quite a lot of the functionality of sound and I would agree to port missing functionality (seem to be just a few functions) to tuneR (which is based on S4 rather than the S3 methods "sound" is base on). So it won't hurt if sound is moved way from CRAN one day.

If you are the author or maintainer of one of these packages, or a
user and are interested that the package stays in the main CRAN
package area (including binaries for various platforms), please
consider taking over as maintainer of the respective
package. Otheriwse we will orphanize the packages after the release of
R 2.1.0 in 10 days.


In addition, the Orphaned directory of CRAN currently contains

anm,2004-09-30,1.9.1
fdim,2004-09-30,1.9.1
kza,2005-01-15,2.0.1
meanscore,2004-09-30,1.9.1
npmc,2004-09-30,1.9.1
phyloarray,2004-09-30,1.9.1
seao.gui,2004-09-30,1.9.1
seao,2004-09-30,1.9.1
twostage,2004-09-30,1.9.1


We try hard to keep all packages on CRAN working "out of the box", hence we need to remove packages that are no longer actively maintained.

Best,
Fritz
