[R-pkg-devel] winbuilder status?

To the extent it's generally helpful, I have seen this for 3 packages during checking on winbuilder this week. Each with submissions during the late afternoon EST. Something may be stalling and resetting.

With Ben's tip to look at the list with foghorn, there does seem to be a small queue that gets stuck, so it's likely not package specific.

And, as with Spencer's experience, resubmitting later gives the normal response.

It's clearly intermittent, so resubmitting a few hours later seems to be a reliable response for now.

Best,
Chris

Hi, Ben:


Thanks for this. I've added "foghorn::winbuilder_queue()" to my routine
script ;-)


AND I restarted the ones I couldn't find, and they all completed as
expected.
