Hi Duncan, I plan to submit it to CRAN at some point it passes RCMD and works on Mac and windows.
I am working on the vignette and help files. When those are done I plan to submit to CRAN. Will see how that goes. The are a ton of other thing like accessor and error handling that need to be addressed. I am researching those.
