As I said previously: "This is currently under inspection by the CRAN 
team."
We really need to investigate this carefully, including options that we 
have to keep the system running with minimal efforts for both the CRAN 
team and hundreds of maintainers who are using "img.shields.io".


Note that the functions fda::CRAN() will not identoify the CRAN master 
to be CRAN as we do not run checks there and pandoc and "img.shields.io" 
is frequently needed for Readme.md conversions.

So just give us a week or two...

Best,
Uwe Ligges
