David Smith discusses potential changes to MRAN:
As CRAN has grown and changes to packages have become more frequent, maintaining MRAN is an increasingly resource-intensive process. We’re contemplating changes, like changing the frequency of snapshots, or thinning the archive of snapshots that haven’t been used. But before we do that we’d like to hear from the community first. Have you used MRAN snapshots? If so, how are you using them? How many different snapshots have you used, and how often do you change that up? Please leave your feedback at the survey link below by June 14, and we’ll use the feedback we gather in our decision-making process. Responses are anonymous, and we’ll summarize the responses in a future blog post. Thanks in advance!
Please take the survey as well. If you’ve used SQL Server Machine Learning Services (or SQL Server R Services), you’ve used MRAN.
