  "textContent": "A maintenance release 0.9.14 of the RcppClassic package arrived earlier today on CRAN, and has been built for r2u. This package provides a maintained version of the otherwise deprecated initial Rcpp API which _no new projects should use_ as the normal and current Rcpp API is so much better.\n\nA few changes had cumulated up since the last release in late 2022. We updated continuous integration scripts a few times, switched to Authors@R in `DESCRIPTION`, and rejigged build scripts a little to accommodate both possible build architectures for macOS. We also updated the vignette by updating all reference and switching the new `asis` vignette builder now available in Rcpp.\n\nCRANberries also reports the changes relative to the previous release from 3 1/2 years ago. Questions, comments etc should go to the rcpp-devel mailing list off the R-Forge page.\n\nThis post by Dirk Eddelbuettel originated on his Thinking inside the box blog. If you like this or other open-source work I do, you can now sponsor me at GitHub.",
