Dear maintainers and R-devel,

Several orphaned CRAN packages are about to be archived due to 
outstanding QC problems, but have CRAN and BioC packages depending on 
them which would be broken by the archival (and hence need archiving 
alongside).
Therefore we are looking for new maintainers taking over maintainership 
for one or more of the following packages:

R2HTML SemiPar cghseg hexbin lgtdl monreg muhaz operators pamr

Package maintainers whose packages depend on one of these may be natural 
candidates to become new maintainers.
Hence this messages is addressed to all these maintainers via BCC and to 
R-devel.

See

   <http://CRAN.R-project.org/package=R2HTML>
   <http://CRAN.R-project.org/package=SemiPar>
   <http://CRAN.R-project.org/package=cghseg>
   <http://CRAN.R-project.org/package=hexbin>
   <http://CRAN.R-project.org/package=lgtdl>
   <http://CRAN.R-project.org/package=monreg>
   <http://CRAN.R-project.org/package=muhaz>
   <http://CRAN.R-project.org/package=operators>
   <http://CRAN.R-project.org/package=pamr>

for information on the QC issues and the reverse dependencies.

Best wishes,
Uwe Ligges

Uwe,

Thanks for the email. What is the expected data that pamr will be off the
main CRAN package list? I don't want to maintain that package but I have
an old, independent implementation of that classifier that I can include
in caret. 

Thanks again,

Max
