<p>A new minor release with version number 0.6.11 of the <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://dirk.eddelbuettel.com/code/digest.html">digest</a> package is now on <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://cran.r-project.org/">CRAN</a> and in <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://www.debian.org/">Debian</a>.</p>
<p>It is mostly a maintenance release. Sometime last spring we were asked to consider changing the license GPL-2 to GPL (>= 2). Having gotten <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="https://github.com/eddelbuettel/digest/issues/36">agreement of all copyright holders</a>, this could finally happen. But it so happens that the last <em>yay</em> just after the last release, so it took another cycle. In other changes, I also made the <code>makeRaw</code> function fully generic and added documentation. The pull request by <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://www.jimhester.com/">Jim Hester</a> to add <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="https://github.com/jimhester/covr">covr</a> support was finally folded in, leading as always to some gaming and improvement of the coverage metrics. A polite request by <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://www.cs.toronto.edu/~radford/">Radford Neal</a> to support a <code>nosharing</code> option in <code>base::serialize</code> was also honoured; this should help for use with his interesting <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://pqr-project.org/">pqR</a> variant of R.</p>
