+* This is a new release.
+* The package suggests the non-CRAN package 
+  [bridgestan](https://roualdes.github.io/bridgestan/latest/languages/r.html)
+  as an optional dependency. A link to the bridgestan installation instructions
+  is provided in the DESCRIPTION file. Functions using the bridgestan API check
+  for presence of the package using `rlang::check_installed()`, the tests for
+  the related functionality are set to be skipped when running on CRAN and the
+  corresponding examples are only run if bridgestan is installed. bridgestan
+  is installed and the corresponding tests and examples run, as part of the
+  continuous integration runs on the packages GitHub repository.
