Hi all,
I tried to submit an update to the xgboost package but didn't pass the
pre-tests with the following note (solved the other one, but this one is
a bit confusing):
```
Flavor: r-devel-linux-x86_64-debian-gcc
Check: examples, Result: NOTE

I think it's because it suggests that the package uses more than 250%
of CPU load on average, which suggests it runs in parallel with more
than two parallel workers, which is the upper limit in the CRAN
Policies (https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/policies.html);

Further to Dirk's advice, my BrailleR package creates a folder (dumping
ground). Users are asked if they want to use one of my choosing, or a
temporary one. If they choose temporary, they get asked again and again until
they cave in to my wishes!
BrailleR also writes files to the current wo
Thank you both. I guess the package can dog food itself by asking one time
whether it can store its files.
