Indeed, that’s a really good sign.

Neat.

I look at the patches briefly and don’t have anything to say.  Perhaps
the only thing that might be worth checking is whether license info is
usually accurate, but I suppose pretty much all R packages are GPLv3+ in
practice since that’s what R is under?

So maybe just double-check, change the licenses to GPLv3+, and push.

Thank you,
