 ## General remarks
 
-This release addresses the deprecation of `sprintf()`. I now use `snprintf()`
-in the C++ code. Warnings I see for R-devel-linux (both clang and GCC) and 
-M1mac are addressed and should disappear. 
+- This release replaces dependency PCRE with PCRE2 in the CWB source code 
+included in this package. I hereby anticipate that build machines will 
+successively not have PCRE installed. Fedora will presumably be first.
 
-Brian Ripley alerted me that the package may be archived on February 6. I hope 
-that I have addressed the issue sufficiently.
+- Rcpp wrappers for CWB functionality is now exported such that it is possible 
+to write Rcpp inline C++ functions using this functionality.
+
+- This is the first package version that includes a vignette (explaining how to
+write inline C++ functions). 
+
+- The cleanup script is extended and reverts modifications that had previously
+gone unnoticed. 
+
+- A failure to build Windows binaries for R-oldrel is addressed: Repository 
+https://github.com/PolMine/libcl that is used to get static libraries has been 
+updated.
 
 Previous aspects I repeat:
 
-- CRAN package check results report 'GNU make is a SystemRequirements'. Using GNU
-make remains important for the portability of the C code. There would be a great
-cost for dropping GNU make and I would not do it unless it is absolutely

 ## R CMD check results
 
-Temporarily I have seen a NOTE that the URL
-https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.4501838 is not available. Seems to work again.
+Check status is OK on all test environments, with one exception. On
+Windows-oldrel, I see SSL issues with URLs in README.md:
+
+- https://developer.apple.com/xcode/ (self signed certificate in certificate chain)
+- https://txm.gitpages.huma-num.fr/textometrie/ (unable to get local issuer certificate)
+
+I do not see these on the  R winbuilder for R release of R devel. My browsers do
+not show a problem with these certificates either.
