[R-pkg-devel] packaging biosig for R

[Alois Schlögl]

Dear R packagers,


the Biosig project [1] supports reading of about 50 different data
format [2]. Recently, a language binding to R was added, because a user
of Biosig asked for it. 


I've read the policy [3], and it seems the biosig would qualify as
binary package. The underlying library (libbiosig) can be installed

- on linux from source, or through debian/ubuntu package

- on MacOSX through Homebrew.

- for Windows I'm using MXE mingw-cross-compiler environment to build
libbiosig.dll 


Would it be feasible to provide a package of biosig on cran ? What need
to be considered ?


Kind regards

   Alois
