Dear Joris,

I would suggest that you change the maintainer in DESCRIPTION and describe
the change in cran-comments.md in the package root. When the new maintainer
submits a new version to CRAN, you will get an email asking you to confirm
the change. At least that's what I recall when changing the maintainer
email address in a package.

Best regards,

Thierry
