For Xubo Yue, who may not be aware of all of the players:
Uwe Ligges is one of the individuals who runs CRAN. When you submit a
package to CRAN, you are asking Uwe and others to distribute your work.
You should listen to what he says.
Spencer Graves and I are not involved in running CRAN. We will give you
advice that we think is good advice, but if it conflicts with Uwe's,
follow his.
