-This submission of ggplot2 fixes \donttest{} examples.
-
 ## Test environments
-* OS X, R 3.1.3
-* OS X, R-devel
-* Ubuntu 14.04, R 3.1.3
+* OS X, R 3.2.2
+* Ubuntu 14.04, R 3.2.2
 * win-builder (devel and release)
 
 ## R CMD check results
 
-There were no ERRORs or WARNINGs in R 3.1.3. On R-devel with --as-cran, there was also this NOTE:
+There were no ERRORs, WARNINGs, or NOTEs.
 
-Found the following (possibly) invalid URLs:

-    From: man/mpg.Rd
-    Status: 404
-    Message: Not Found
+## Downstream dependencies
 
-This URL is accessible through a web browser, though apparently not via R CMD check.
+This version of ggplot2 contains substantial changes (hence the bump in the major version number), and I've done my best to get the reverse dependencies updated. I started the release process over two months ago, and I have notified maintainers three times (and I'll notify them again today). 
 
+Unfortunately there are still widespread check failures (mostly new WARNINGS). They are mostly caused by three changes:
 
-On R-devel for Windows x64, the tests hung and did not complete. We encountered some similar strange errors in our local testing, until we rebuilt and reinstalled packages from source. After doing that, the R CMD CHECK passed as above without problems.
+* ggplot2 now imports and exports `unit()` and `arrow()` from grid, and 
+  `alpha()` from scales. Many packages seem to have unused unqualified import 
+  statements which now generates a warning on package install. (You could argue
+  that this is a false positive since the conflicting names both point to the 
+  same object.). This affects:
+  
+  alm, arqas, benchmark, blowtorch, clhs, conformal, Deducer, DTRlearn, dynsim, 
+  extracat, FAOSTAT, fheatmap, FinCal, gettingtothebottom, GGally, gwmw, 
+  HistDAWass, hyperspec, kobe, likert, lsbclust, marketeR, Methplot, micromap, 
+  MissingDataGUI, mizer, MultiMeta, ncappc, nparACT, optiRum, patPRO, 
+  PortfolioEffectHFT, PPtreeViz, PReMiuM, prevR, primerTree, qicharts, 
+  quadrupen, RAM, RDS, RFmarkerDetector, rfPermute, RobustEM, rotations, RSDA, 
+  SCGLR, sjPlot, soc.ca, sparkTable, spikeSlabGAM, spoccutils, sprm, statebins, 
+  strvalidator, survMisc, tcR, TreatmentSelection, TriMatch, UpSetR, useful, 
+  varian, waffle
 
-## Downstream dependencies
-We did not run checks on downstream dependencies, because there were no behaviour modifying changes to the code.
+* ggplot2 makes extensive use of ..., and previously little checking was done
+  on the contents. Now ggplot2 is much stricter about ... which causes a number
+  of warnings, where previously the function silently did the wrong thing.
+  This afffects:
+  
+  AmplicoDuo, chemosensors, clifro, dpcR, granovaGG, GraphPCA, HistDAWass, 
+  knitrBootstrap, LOGIT, lsbclust, mlr, multitable, oaxaca, pAnalysis, PASWR2, 
+  patPRO, PDQutils, planar, RAM, reproducer, rex, rfordummies, sdmvspecies, 
+  SensMixed, simmer, SixSigma, sjPlot, spcosa, ss3sim, starma, survMisc, tcR, 
+  treecm, userfriendlyscience, vcdExtra, vdmR, wq, xkcd
+
+* A few packages linked to the ggplot2 documentation topic, which didn't 
+  actualy contain anything useful. I removed the file, so a number of packges
+  now give warnings about a missing link. This affects:
+  
+  PopED, precrec, RcmdrPlugin.KMggplot2points, simPH, statebins
+
+Finally, there were a grab bag of other failures:
 
+* CosmoPhotoz: uses a newly deprecated function
+* cowplot: uses a newly deprecated function
+* directlabels: ?? think this is long standing (??)
+* ggswissmaps (looks like it was relying on an internal API that's changed)
+* ggmcmc (from GGally error)
+* metricsgraphics (relies on movies data which has moved to ggplot2movies)
+* OutbreakTools: downstream error from ggmap
+* plot2groups: used internal StatHline which is no longer exported
+* plotly: used internal StatVline which is no longer exported
+* precintcon: ?? not ggplot2 related?
+* RCell: used internal functions where API has changed
+* robustlmm: ?? not ggplot2 related?
+* SWMPr: downstream error from ggmap
+* synthpop:  ?? not ggplot2 related?
+* TreatmentSelection: used internal stat_hline which is now longer exported
