CRAN archiving vip soon #165

Description

@vnijs

Hi there,

I have enjoyed using VIP and my radiant.model package uses it as a dependency. Unfortunately, CRAN is seeing testing issues and has started to move towards archiving VIP. See the link and email below.

https://cran.r-project.org/web/checks/check_results_vip.html

If there is anything I can help with, please do let me know.

Best,

Vincent

Subject: CRAN package vip and its reverse dependencies
 
Dear maintainers,

This concerns the CRAN packages

  flowml MLwrap moreparty prettyglm radiant.model vip

maintained by one of you:

  Albert Sesé albert.sese@uib.es: MLwrap
  Brandon M. Greenwell greenwell.brandon@gmail.com: vip
  Jared Fowler jared.fowler8@gmail.com: prettyglm
  Nicolas Robette nicolas.robette@uvsq.fr: moreparty
  Sebastian Malkusch sebastian.malkusch@boehringer-ingelheim.com: flowml
  Vincent Nijs radiant@rady.ucsd.edu: radiant.model

We have repeatedly asked for an update fixing the check problems shown on
  <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://cran.r-project.org/web/checks/check_results_vip.html__;!!Mih3wA!CDZ2i5Z8UIvKDi1TKiUj56sSPRSb_OHZ8-hor-0uiPr3qEmCZxd2T-ceEDUl8fJnXSuCITAuXg01kQZiyweE0Fm_NVBk0BPL$ > with no reply from the
maintainer thus far.

Thus, package vip is now scheduled for archival on 2025-12-01, and archiving this will necessitate also archiving its CRAN strong reverse dependencies.

Please negotiate the necessary actions.

Best wishes,
The CRAN Team
