checkr package name taken on CRAN

[rsbivand]

There is a checkr package already on CRAN, repo - I looked after seeing this package referred to on the R-teaching ML.

Thanks for pointing this out. I'll have to change the name before posting on CRAN. Suggestions?

correctr and feedbackr appear to be available now, though less pleasing than checkr would have been; grader also seems to be free too.

Actually it would be nice if you could change the name already. After my periodically updating of program packages with RStudio I always forget not to update with the wrong checkr package.

I would go for feedbackr as it is more than just checking if something is correct or wrong. It emphasizes the communication with the learner.

@dtkaplan Would you be able to go ahead and change the name to something such as the previously suggested feedbackr? Each time my college updates its Shiny server checkr gets replaced with the CRAN checkr which shuts down a workbook used by first-year students to learn R.
