Dear Pepijn,

Thank you for the very detailed email.
Part of these 22 days might be explained by CRAN volunteers being on
vacations a couple of weeks, until yesterday.

I would submit the latest version of the package with the improvements you made.
Other options require more manual work from CRAN volunteers and/or more delays.
I'm sure they will appreciate you double checking CRAN policy to make
sure you comply with all the requirements.

To solve some common issues, there is a new resource co-authored by a
CRAN reviewer: the CRAN cookbook:
https://contributor.r-project.org/cran-cookbook/
I hope it helps.

Good luck!
Best,

Lluís Revilla

PS: There are some issues on AmigaFFH package, you might receive a
message to update it.

This has been fixed in <https://github.com/pepijn-devries/openmpt>, but has not been submitted yet. How do I proceed? I think I have the following options:
