Hello All, I have corrected some parameters to one of my function in my package CUFF (https://github.com/giguerch/CUFF) following a request by Prof Ripley related to a change in aggregate parameter list. I ran a full check of my package using the r-devel version and option --as-cran and got no error message. When I submit it to CRAN there are some error messages and my submission is denied but I don't know what to change since the only error message is that the package cannot be installed. Can someone give me some tips on how I can figure that out? Thank you. Charles-?douard

It would be much easier to help if we could see the messages themselves.
Best regards, Ivan
Hi All I am the maintainer of packages "chest" and "allestimates". With my employment change, I would like to change my work email to a gmail address. After reading https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/policies.html, I am still not clear how to change my email and whether I need to resubmit package updates. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Regards, Zhiqiang Zhiqiang Wang

While your old email address still works, you don't need to submit a package update. If it will stop working, or you don't want CRAN to use it any more, then you should submit one. When you (eventually) update your package, include the new email address, and mention in the submission message that you are changing the maintainer address. CRAN will probably write to the old address to confirm the change, so it's a good idea to make the change before the old email goes away. If the old address disappears before you have a chance to change the package it creates extra work for everyone, because it makes it hard for CRAN to verify that you aren't trying to hijack someone else's package.

Thanks a lot. That's helpful. I will update before my current work email disappears. Zhiqiang
