Research direction

Start with the CRAN package archivals section in Maintenance.md and inspect the zic entry in the Bayesian task view. Check whether zic has returned to CRAN; if not, remove it from the task view, with the issue resolved when the archived package is no longer listed.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Package zic is currently listed in CRAN Task View Bayesian but the package has actually been archived for more than 60 days on CRAN. Often this indicates that the package is currently not sufficiently actively maintained and should be excluded from the task view.

Alternatively, you might also consider reaching out to the authors of the package and encourage (or even help) them to bring the package back to CRAN. See the section on CRAN package archivals in the maintenance guidelines for more details.

In any case, the situation should be resolved in the next four weeks. If the package does not seem to be brought back to CRAN, please exclude it from the task view.
