Seeking new maintainers for R packages

[sckott]

Hi again, I’m back looking for new maintainers for some R packages that I can no longer maintain. These aren’t all PID related, but I imagine folks here may use one or more of these or know people who do - and some of those users may be interested in taking over maintenance hopefully

• rorcid - Client for ORCID API
• jaod - Client for https://doaj.org/
• rbace - Client for https://www.base-search.net/
• fulltext - Fetch abstracts and full text of articles
• pubchunks - Extract specific fields from XML full text files into lists or tidy data.frame
• rcoreoa - Client for https://core.ac.uk/

Let me know if you’re interested.

Hi Scott, just double checking whether this is voluntary work? Thanks!

[sckott]

Correct, volunteer work. But if your organization supports you in maintaining them, then I guess it would be paid

Thanks, someone asked me this question so I wanted to double check with you
