R-Forge not building packages?
I will not be surprised if it takes longer than a week to build a package on R-Forge, although I have no idea why it has to be incredibly slow (do they have Sys.sleep(7*24*60*60) somewhere in the code?). I do have found an alternative solution, though, which is to spend these days on teaching more R users (especially Windows users) how to install R packages via R CMD INSTALL or devtools::install_github(). That is usually a lot faster than R-Forge.
