Hi Robin, congratulations to your published article about untb ;-) One possible explanation is that your examples use random numbers which may be different ones during the CRAN check. I had this problem with another package where a "rare random number event" lead to non-convergence of optim during the package check. You may use set.seed() as a first aid and then try to stabilize your algorithms. BTW: untb_1.3-2.tar.gz passed the check just now on my system: R 2.7.0 Under development (unstable), svn rev 43092 (5.
