With the release of version 1.0 still very fresh, we are announcing the release of version 1.0.1, the first maintenance release of the Luminescence R package. This is a minor release meant to address one important regression, but it also brings a few additional robustness and correctness improvements. In total we addressed 13 issues in 53 commits.

We are happy to announce that the Luminescence R package has finally reached version 1.0.0. This is an important milestone, not only in the history of the Luminescence package, but also for the REPLAY project.

This makes it the third release since the start of the REPLAY project:

• Version 0.9.25 was released in September 2024, just over a month into the project, and it already contained a large number of changes (422 commits)

• Version 0.9.26 was a minor release (73 commits) to fix a couple of small regressions that we didn’t want to affect our first REPLAY webinar

• Version 1.0.0 contains most of the work that has occurred between September and February (886 commits) in a number of key areas, which we’ll outline below.

We have finally launched the website for the REPLAY project. We will use it to report on the progress of the project, to inform about webinars and other training opportunities, and to discuss some details concerning the development of the Luminescence package.

At the moment the site is still sparse, but we’ll populate it on a regular basis. In the meantime, you can read our About page, which describes the aims and goals of the REPLAY project.
