I think so. See the short discussion in the CRAN Repository Policy document. Ideally the previous maintainer would signal approval of the change to CRAN as well. | The new submission was rejected from CRAN with the note: | | Check: CRAN incoming feasibility, Result: NA | Maintainer: 'Michael Hellstern <mik...@uw.edu>' | New submission | Package was archived on CRAN | CRAN repository db overrides: | X-CRAN-Comment: Archived on 2021-04-08 as check problems were not | corrected in time. | The Date field is over a month old. You should update the date field too.
