Dirk Eddelbuettel: RcppClassic 0.9.14 on CRAN: Minor Update

A maintenance release 0.9.14 of the RcppClassic
package arrived earlier today on CRAN, and has been built for r2u. This package
provides a maintained version of the otherwise deprecated initial Rcpp
API which no new projects should use as the normal and current
Rcpp API is so much better.

A few changes had cumulated up since the last release in late 2022.
We updated continuous integration scripts a few times, switched to
Authors@R in DESCRIPTION, and rejigged build scripts a
little to accommodate both possible build architectures for macOS. We
also updated the vignette by updating all reference and switching the
new asis vignette builder now available in Rcpp.

CRANberries
also reports the changes relative to the
previous release from 3 1/2 years ago. Questions, comments etc
should go to the rcpp-devel
mailing list off the R-Forge page.
