I just installed the 4.0 patched binary, and noticed that it is still at 5/24 (i.e. pre Beta, although I'm guessing that's a minor distinction). 3.6 was updated yesterday. Since I'm not too familiar with this process yet, what kind of update schedule should I expect for these binaries?
Best, Brodie. On Saturday, May 16, 2020, 4:22:40 AM EDT, peter dalgaard <pda...@gmail.com> wrote: Yes. Simon's policy is just to use the current x.y SVN branch (say R-4.0-branch) which goes through the alpha-beta-RC-(release)-Patched cycle. I.e. R-4.0-branch.pkg will _be_ the prerelease at the relevant stage of the development cycle. (Nerdy details: There is only x.y.0 alpha, otherwise we go directly from, say, "4.0.0 Patched" to "4.0.1 beta"; or, differently put, R-patched _is_ the alpha for the next version. Also, the unqualified x.y.z name is only there while the relase tarball is being created, which is about 5 minutes on release day so never makes it to the nightly builds.) -pd > On 16 May 2020, at 02:27 , brodie gaslam <brodie.gas...@yahoo.com> wrote: > > > Presumably the alpha/RC releases are also posted to the mac.r-project.org > page. -- Peter Dalgaard, Professor, Center for Statistics, Copenhagen Business School Solbjerg Plads 3, 2000 Frederiksberg, Denmark Phone: (+45)38153501 Office: A 4.23 Email: pd....@cbs.dk Priv: pda...@gmail.com _______________________________________________ R-SIG-Mac mailing list R-SIG-Mac@r-project.org https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-sig-mac
