vegan moves to GitHub and new release 2.2-0
Vegan development has moved to GitHub. The front page of vegan is https://github.com/vegandevs/vegan. We do still update R-Forge, but that is now a secondary site. All changes are first pushed to github and then mirrored to R-Forge. This also means that R-Forge is potentially out of date, and may become functional at any time without notice.

vegan 2.0-6 in CRAN
Vegan 2.0-6 was released in CRAN on Feb 11, 2013.
Trying GitHub
We have tried GitHub (https://github.com/jarioksa/vegan) as an alternative development site for vegan for a couple of weeks. At the moment, R-Forge is still the official main development environment, but some of the work happens at GitHub first. The interface between GitHub and R-Forge is not completely painless and we are going to drop one of these platforms someday, but so far we try to keep R-Forge and GitHub in sync.

vegan: 1.17-12 released, 2.0 coming soon
A minor maintenance release vegan_1.17-12 was released on August 17. Changes are many but most of them improve the stability in exceptional cases. The only new function is tolerance() which finds the species "tolerances" and sample heterogeneities from a CA or CCA result. There is a small bug fix in metaMDSrotate(), and new arguments were added to make.cepnames(), ordilabel() and swan(), and adonis() is faster.
