Another quick update to the still new-ish package spdl is now om CRAN, and in Debian. The key focus of spdl is a offering the same interface from both R and C++ for logging by relying on spdlog via my RcppSpdlog package.
This release add support for the stopwatch()
facility.
One can now instantiate such an object, and referencing it in a log
message shows the elapsed time. No more, no less, and it works the same
way in R and C++.
The short NEWS entry follows.
Changes in spdl version 0.0.4 (2023-01-08)
- Add support for
stopwatch
Courtesy of my CRANberries, there is also a diffstat report. More detailed information is on the spdl page.

A new maintenance release, now at version 0.0.18, of the RVowpalWabbit
package arrived on CRAN. It improves several sprintf()
calls by changing them to snprintf()
(though there is a
remaining one creeping in from a linked-to library).
As noted before, there is a newer package rvw based on the excellent GSoC 2018 and beyond work by Ivan Pavlov (mentored by James and myself) so if you are into VowpalWabbit from R go check it out.
CRANberries provides a summary of changes to the previous version. More information is on the RVowpalWabbit page. Issues and bugreports should go to the GitHub issue tracker.
