Maybe. But to move in either direction we'd need to go from 'maybe' and 'might' and 'coulda/shoulda' to something with more certainty. The warnings certainly hit at some point. But as I recall CRAN / R Core also rolled some parts of the ':::' testing back. I also recall that they talked about some extra nonsense of allowing ':::' between packages with the same maintainer (which efffectively prevents from testing on my package, sigh) Maybe someone could volunteer and tests a few cases? In any event there is no immediate release ... so we can alter NAMESPACE for Rcpp as well a few more times til we feel it is ready and good.
