Hi,

rpy2 is moving it is C-extension to a cffi-based implementation.

The plan is to have ABI and API access to R, the former being for the cases
where the installer's system is not setup to compile (as OSX and R release
jointly made this harder according to the issue tracker).

At the time of writing this effort has been merged into the branch
`default` (future rpy2-3.0.0) and the ABI implementation is mostly
complete, with a small number of tests still failing. The Docker images
with the release tag "latest" are now also built with that cffi
implementation.

rpy2-3.0.0 should be released in Q1 2019, and in the meantime I encourage
users to try the dev branch and report issues not yet covered by unit tests.


Best,


Laurent
