Hello R-pkg-devel, Our package vcfR,
https://github.com/knausb/vcfR has been removed from CRAN because they asked me to make changes that I have not been able to make before their deadline. One of the issues was that the moniker "briank.lists" is not appropriate and that we should see CRAN policy. I interpret "CRAN policy" here to be the following link. https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/policies.html I'm struggling with *why* is this inappropriate, so I do not understand how to fix it. My attempt to interpret this issue is that this "moniker" has been interpreted as a "mailing list" by a CRAN member. The policy states that a "single designated maintainer (a person, not a mailing list)" should be included in the DESCRIPTION. However, in vcfR this address is a "single designated maintainer" (me). It's where I receive mail from various mailing lists I've signed up for. For example, mail I receive from "R-pkg-devel" comes to this address. So I feel that this is confusion on the side of CRAN. Does anyone see a reason for *why* this may be considered inappropriate? Thank you!
