I noticed with some alarm that the R package *extraDistr* is now declared "ORPHANED" on CRAN <https://cran.r-project.org/package=extraDistr>, and its repository is unmantained <https://github.com/twolodzko/extraDistr> with no maintained forks either.

Sad. This is an extremely useful package, on which many others depend. It seems underrated (only 53 stars on GitHub). I hope it will be incorporated into the set of base R packages, as it happened with *penguins* some versions ago.
