Indeed, this should be required given that you do not use or test under Windows, yet there are many Windows users. It would also be helpful if you inform the authors of client packages before releasing duplicate functionality that will break the build for these packages (Rcpp 0.8.3 broke the build of cxxPack). This incompatibility was known, yet was released. Dominick
