| I haven't seen any discussion on this in a while. Is this something | that warrants discussion, or something to keep in mind for later? | I'd prefer such a package to depend on RcppArmadillo so that my | implementation of sample() can be easily included. Are there | downsides to this? I think sample() should go into Armadillo proper. You just need to get lucky to get both Romain and myself when our attention span is actually on this. Joking aside I should make some time to put this in ... but not sure when I'll get to this.
Sounds fine to me -- I aim to submit a patch with sample() code + tests before Xmas, so I'll post it against RcppArmadillo. Does this imply that something like an RcppExtras package is, for now at least, a no-go from your point of view? I have no opinion either way :) -Christian
