I noticed recently that check --as-cran was hanging and then emitting a
message about not being able to verify the current time. It seems that the
CRAN check code is using some website to get the current clock time and
that that site is currently down. This strikes me as an odd approach to
getting the current time. Why was that approach taken when NTP is
available on all mainstream OSs? Is there something unusual about the
CRAN environment?
