RcppDE 0.1.2

A maintenance release (now at version 0.1.2) of my RcppDE package (previously described in these two posts) is now CRAN. More details about the package are available in the vignette also included in the RcppDE R package.

Changes were minimal and driven mostly by some CRAN Policy changes which now prefer vignette sources files in (top-level) directory vignettes/

Courtesy of CRANberries, there is also a diffstat report for the most recent release. Current and previous releases are available here as well as on CRAN.
