[R-pkg-devel] Namespace: summary of all undefined globals

[Gábor Csárdi]

If you don't want to build r-devel yourself, you can just use
http://win-builder.r-project.org/

Or, if your project is on GitHub you can also use
https://github.com/metacran/r-builder to check on multiple R versions,
including R-devel.

If something was in r-devel in July, then it will have been slated for 3.3.0.
