  Description     : GNU R generic reproducible parallel backend for 'foreach' loops
 This GNU R package provides functions to perform
 reproducible parallel foreach loops, using independent
 random streams as generated by L'Ecuyer's combined
 multiple-recursive generator [L'Ecuyer (1999), <DOI:10.1287/opre.47.1.159>].
 It enables to easily convert standard %dopar% loops into
 fully reproducible loops, independently of the number
 of workers, the task scheduling strategy, or the chosen
 parallel environment and associated foreach backend.


Remark: This package is needed to upgrade r-cran-blockmodeling to its latest
upstream version.  It will be maintained by the R-pkg team at
