I'm sorry, Georgi, but "of interest" (to some readers) still
does not make this the correct mailing list for the topic,
rather really *does* belong to R-devel instead :
This has been about
- if an S4 generic for "predict" and similar
generics should be instantiated in the (base R) 'stats4' package
(==> change of R, not of a developer's package)
- and about good strategies to define S3 and S4 methods and generics
(==> general advanced R programming, not directly related get a
package accepted by CRAN standards)
Followups please on R-devel
((Unfortunately, because of severe spamming of people posting to
the list, we have delayed archiving the official archives considerably for now;
to still see the current thread on R-devel, you can use one of
the *other* archives: ==> https://marc.info/?t=152716935600002&r=1&w=2 ))
Best,
Martin Maechler
