AFNI Message Board

Dear AFNI users-

We are very pleased to announce that the new AFNI Message Board framework is up! Please join us at:

https://discuss.afni.nimh.nih.gov

Existing user accounts have been migrated, so returning users can login by requesting a password reset. New users can create accounts, as well, through a standard account creation process. Please note that these setup emails might initially go to spam folders (esp. for NIH users!), so please check those locations in the beginning.

The current Message Board discussion threads have been migrated to the new framework. The current Message Board will remain visible, but read-only, for a little while.

Sincerely, AFNI HQ

I just converted the Docker image to Singularity using

$ singularity build --sandbox afni-22.2.04.sbox docker://afni/afni_make_build

I was surprised to find that

$ singularity exec afni-22.2.04.sbox R --version
R version 3.4.4 (2018-03-15) -- "Someone to Lean On"

R is currently at version 4.2.1, released 2022-06-23.

That seems quite old. Perhaps it could be updated? There are instructions for supplying a different Ubuntu sources location at

[cran.r-project.org]

for example,

deb [cloud.r-project.org] bionic-cran40/

to /etc/apt/sources.list.

Just thought I would suggest that as a possible improvement.

Thanks for considering this suggestion.
